Arrowmax am-210053 Silicone Diff Fluid 59ml 1.600cst  [am-210053]

Silicone diff fluid for RC differentials

Arrowmax am-210053 Silicone Diff Fluid is a purpose-made silicone oil supplied in a 59ml bottle and specified at 1.600cst viscosity for RC differential tuning. It is intended for use inside the sealed diff housing of scale RC models to change damping behaviour and traction balance without altering mechanical gears or bearings.

The fluid's role is purely hydraulic: changing the oil viscosity modifies how quickly the differential transfers torque between wheels during cornering, acceleration and deceleration. Use 1.600cst when you need moderate damping that helps stabilize transient weight transfer while keeping predictable on-power and off-power responses.

Installation is straightforward for hobby-level maintenance: remove the diff from the chassis, disassemble the housing according to the diff type, drain old fluid, clean internal surfaces and refill to the recommended level for that diff design. Work at a bench with clean towels and small syringe or fill cup to avoid spills and air pockets. After reassembly run a few test laps and recheck behaviour before final fine tuning.

Tuning notes: small viscosity changes produce incremental handling differences, so change one variable at a time and keep a log of adjustments. Combine fluid choice with mechanical setup such as slipper clutch preload or gear mesh for a balanced result. Store the bottle capped, upright and away from direct heat to preserve fluid condition.

This product is positioned as a straightforward consumable for diff tuning, offering a consistent 1.600cst option for practitioners who prefer hydraulic adjustments over mechanical alterations.
