Improve Shock Performance with Tamiya 54713 Silicone Oil 550

Changing damper fluid is one of the easiest ways to tune vehicle balance and response. The 40ml Tamiya bottle gives plenty of volume for multiple shocks and keeps refills straightforward for regular maintenance.

Why Use a 550 Weight

A 550 weight is on the firmer side, so it tightens up both compression and rebound. That firmness is useful for higher-speed tracks and surfaces that reward sharper handling. The oil is colour coded to prevent mixing different weights by accident.

Fits Most Oil-Filled Dampers

Tamiya 54713 Silicone Oil 550 is suitable for a wide range of oil-filled dampers across buggies, trucks and touring cars. It gives tuners flexibility to dial in a firmer setup without swapping mechanical parts.

A firmer rear or stiffer overall damping can increase understeer in some setups. Balance front and rear damping changes and test progressively to find the best handling.
A simple shock oil syringe or a fine-tipped bottle cap works well. Clean tools help avoid contamination between different viscosities.
Change intervals depend on use, but regular racers usually refresh oil every few events. Inspect for foam or leakage as a sign it is time to service.
