The Yokomo YS-850 Super Blend Shock Oil #850 is a silicone-based fluid made for RC shock absorbers, providing a stable 850wt viscosity to aid consistent damping. It is suitable for a range of electric and nitro applications where repeatable response is important.
Changing the oil weight affects compression and rebound timings, so using YS-850 influences body roll, traction behaviour, and overall chassis balance. Use it as part of systematic setup changes to refine handling characteristics.
When you service shocks, clean the damper chamber and remove any trapped air before final assembly to preserve damping consistency. Check the condition of seals and pistons for silicone compatibility and perform short test runs after any oil change to confirm the result.
