Tweak Shock Response with Tamiya 42175 VG Damper Oil 35

Tamiya VG Damper Oil 35 is a silicone shock fluid that helps you customise suspension feel for both off-road and on-road RC models. It aims to provide reliable, repeatable damper action for setup work.

Choosing the Right Viscosity Step

The VG Damper Oil 35 is part of a line with 5-step viscosity increments, so you can precisely control rebound and compression rates. Lower numbers soften the setup for smoother tracks while higher numbers firm things up on rougher surfaces.

Practical Workshop Uses

Available in a 50cc bottle, this oil is convenient for regular maintenance and for experimenting with different shock tunes. Keep spare fluid for rebuilds and to stabilise damper performance after heavy use.

Will VG 35 soften or stiffen my current setup?

VG 35 gives a moderate increase in damping compared to lower VG numbers, providing a firmer feel without being overly harsh for most track types.

Can this oil be used with foam-filled shocks?

Yes, it is suitable for dampers that accept silicone oil. Ensure foam and seals are clean to avoid contamination that can alter damping.

How should I store unused oil?

Keep the bottle tightly sealed and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain consistency over time.
