Tuning stability with a titanium-coated shaft for R12/GT

This replacement rear shock shaft and piston fits the Yokomo R12/GT series as a performance-minded accessory for RC touring cars. The shaft surface is titanium coated to minimise surface damage and reduce abrasion against the damper O-ring, which supports steadier damping behavior across multiple runs.

Fitment notes: the R12-18SRT shaft replaces the factory rear damper piston shaft; insert it through the damper body and seal assembly matching the original orientation. Confirm the O-ring is seated correctly and that the piston moves freely before final reassembly. Use the recommended shock oil and standard disassembly steps for your R12/GT chassis.

Effect on setup: because the coating only alters surface hardness and does not modify piston geometry or hole sizes, expected damping values stay the same while the shaft helps maintain those settings longer by limiting wear at the seal interface.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
No. The coating does not change piston hole sizing or internal geometry, so damping numbers remain governed by piston type and oil weight; the shaft helps keep those numbers consistent over time.
Yes. Because the shaft does not alter internal piston dimensions, you can experiment with pistons and oil viscosity to tune damping as usual while benefiting from improved shaft durability.
The reduced abrasion at the O-ring can stabilise piston motion and help maintain rebound consistency across multiple runs, but rebound tuning still depends on piston and oil selection.
