Boost Off-Road Damping with Tamiya 53027 Silicone Fluid

The Tamiya 53027 Silicone Damper Oil is a go-to for enthusiasts running demanding off-road layouts. Its hard silicone character supports firmer damping, helping models cope with big hits and uneven surfaces while preserving shock internals.

Designed for Tough Running

Specifically useful where repeated impacts and heat build-up occur, the Tamiya 53027 helps reduce wear and keeps damping rates stable over time. It is well suited to bashing rigs and heavier competition cars.

Practical Benefits and Fitment

Compatibility: Compatible with many Tamiya shocks and common aftermarket cartridges.
Durability: Resists viscosity loss from heat and heavy cycling.
Performance: Provides firmer bump control and consistent rebound.
Maintenance: Easier service intervals thanks to reduced internal wear.

How do I choose oil for a heavy 1/8 scale buggy?

For heavier buggies try firmer oils like Tamiya 53027 to control large impacts. Pair with stiffer springs and test progressively heavier fluids until handling feels balanced.

Does temperature affect this silicone oil?

Silicone oils are more stable than mineral oils, but extreme heat can still thin fluid. Check oil condition after long runs and replace if performance drops.

Any tips for bleeding air from shocks?

Push the shock shaft slowly while the cap is open to release trapped air, then top up oil and reassemble. Repeat until rebound is smooth and consistent.
