Serpent 500450 Caps Improve SRX Shock Alignment

Modelers aiming for crisper suspension action can fit the Serpent 500450 Aluminium Shock Bottom Caps to their SRX vehicles. Machined from 7075 T6 aluminium, these caps offer precise seating and robust service life.

Finish and Handling During Maintenance

The caps are anodised black to protect against wear and to present a clean, uniform look. The machining makes it easier to handle the caps during setup and teardown, reducing slips or damage when adjusting the shocks trackside.

Better Guidance for the Shock Rod

These bottom caps are shaped to keep the shock rod running true, cutting friction and improving damper response. Riders will notice steadier handling and more predictable behaviour on bumpy layouts when these caps are installed.

Will fitting these affect ride height?

These caps are designed to match SRX geometry and should not alter ride height. They focus on rod guidance rather than changing spring or mount positions.

How do I clean them after muddy runs?

Rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly, then inspect for trapped grit around the rod. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can wear the anodised layer.

Are these suitable for competitive off road use?

Yes, their durable aluminium construction and precise fit make them suitable for regular club racing and more demanding off road running where consistent suspension action matters.

Can I paint the caps to match my car?

Painting anodised aluminium is possible but requires proper prep. Light scuffing and a suitable primer will help paint adhesion, though this may affect corrosion protection so take care.
