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.
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.
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.
