Yokomo YOKRP-085275 Ultra Shock Oils #27.5 Racing Performer silicone shock oil for RC shock absorbers  [YOKRP-085275]

Silicone shock oil for RC damping

This Yokomo YOKRP-085275 Ultra Shock Oil is an RC-scale silicone oil formulated for use in shock absorbers to support damping adjustments. It is intended as a replacement or tuning fluid for shocks where a consistent silicone base oil is required, and it should be used only in model car suspension assemblies.

Role in tuning: shock oil controls damping speed by resisting piston movement inside the shock body. Choosing a heavier or lighter oil affects traction and response during cornering, weight transfer, and rebound. Use this product as part of stepwise tuning, changing oil to test handling differences while keeping other variables constant.

Installation notes: drain existing oil, inspect seals and shock shafts for wear, then refill the shock slowly to minimize trapped air. Cycle the shock to bleed bubbles and top up as needed. Use appropriate syringes or shock pumps designed for RC shock maintenance to avoid contamination and overfilling.

Handling and storage: keep caps tight, store upright at room temperature away from direct sunlight, and avoid mixing with other oil types. Dispose of waste oil according to local guidelines for chemical fluids.
