For hobbyists chasing predictable shock performance, the Tamiya 42214 Silicone Damper X-Rings are an effective upgrade. The silicone material and X-profile work together to reduce oil leakage compared with standard O-rings.
The X-profile provides multiple sealing edges that resist extrusion and keep contact under dynamic movement. That means dampers hold oil better and deliver more repeatable damping characteristics during long sessions.
These X-rings are intended for aeration-style damper setups from the same manufacturer and pair best with silicone damper oils to ensure consistent piston action and reduced maintenance needs.
