Notes on shock shaft performance

This pair of steel shafts is supplied as replacement items for the Medius X26 steel EP SER400052 shock assembly, intended to refresh worn or damaged X26 internal shafts. They act as direct swap components during routine shock servicing.

In practical terms, the shafts sit inside the shock body where straightness and surface finish influence damping stability and piston travel. Fit new shafts when rebuilding shocks, replacing bent tubes, or preparing the car for precise suspension setup.

Follow normal rebuild procedure: remove the shock cap, extract the old shaft, check seals and bearings for wear, install the replacement shaft, verify free piston movement, and reassemble using the shock oil suited to your configuration. These notes apply to RC-scale shock maintenance and tuning.

Specifications

  • Item: Shock shaft, 2 pcs
  • Material: Steel
  • Model Number: SER402174
  • Compatibility: Medius X26 steel EP (SER400052)

As a matched set, these shafts give a simple route to restoring Medius X26 type shock assemblies where steel shafts are required, supporting reliable rebuilds and consistent tuning outcomes.

Steel shafts provide good resistance to bending under typical RC loads, which helps reduce the chance of deformation compared with softer materials, assuming seals and internals are in good order.
Yes. Installing straight, smooth shafts can improve damping consistency and contribute to a more predictable shock response during setup adjustments.
Replace shafts when signs of bending, scoring, or corrosion appear, or when a rebuild reveals seal or piston wear that compromises smooth travel.
Clean mating surfaces, lightly oil seals during assembly, confirm axial alignment, and cycle the piston through its travel to ensure no binding before final tightening.
