Enhance TRF501X Shock Performance with Tamiya Pistons

The Tamiya 53976 Low Friction Piston uses precision polyacetal (POM) and is intended for the TRF501X chassis. The pistons are engineered to give a low-friction sliding surface that supports predictable shock behaviour.

Fine-Tune Shock Response

The 1.2cm diameter design enables more nuanced damping adjustments for improved cornering control. These pistons do not fit CVA or TRF dampers, so check shock compatibility before purchase.

Practical Setup Advice

Fit using clean oil and appropriate tools, and cycle the damper to ensure the piston seats correctly. Regular service and oil changes will keep damping consistent across sessions.

Yes, they can be used off-road but expect increased wear on very abrasive surfaces; inspect pistons more often after rough use.
They are intended for the TRF501X shock bore. Compare your shock internal diameter and stroke to confirm fitment with OEM units.
Clean oil and debris from shocks after each session, check pistons for scoring, and refresh oil periodically to preserve smooth damping action.
