TAMIYA F103RM Friction Damper Pole by 3Racing F103RM-13  [F103RM-13]

Friction damper pole for F103RM

This 3Racing F103RM-13 friction damper pole is an RC-scale replacement part made for use with the TAMIYA F103RM chassis. It serves as a direct swap for the damper pole inside the F103RM friction damper assembly and is intended to support precise damping adjustments during chassis setup.

Installation is straightforward for hobby technicians familiar with the F103RM damper assembly: remove the existing damper pole from the friction damper unit, inspect the damper internals for wear, then fit the 3Racing pole into the same position using the original retainers and screws. No special tools beyond standard hex drivers are required for basic replacement.

In tuning terms this part acts as a mechanical interface within the friction damper, influencing how damping force is transferred and how quickly the damper settles. Use it when you need finer manual control over rebound and compression feel on a 1/10 touring chassis running friction-style dampers.

Maintenance advice: keep the pole and damper bore clean of grit, check for play or scoring, and replace if wear affects smooth operation. Regular inspection helps maintain consistent damping characteristics on the track.
