The Yokomo RP-113425 RP Ultra Shock Oil #42.5 is formulated for use in radio control shock absorbers and dampers. It comes in a 40cc bottle and is colored blue to help you quickly match viscosities during setup.
Role in setup: The oil controls the internal flow characteristics of a shock, directly influencing compression and rebound behavior. Swapping viscosities is an efficient way to refine handling without changing springs or piston assemblies.
Installation and handling: Follow your shock supplier's procedure to open and refill shocks. Remove old fluid, add the RP Ultra oil, compress the shock to remove trapped air, then reassemble. Keep containers sealed and avoid contact with contaminants.
Tuning notes: Use the #42.5 option as a baseline mid-level setting and compare adjacent grades to dial in balance. Track surface, spring stiffness, and piston porting will alter the damping effect, so adjust one parameter at a time.
