Sealed Performance for Spyder Shock Units

Hobbyists who service their own shocks can rely on the Serpent 500487 Silicone Shock X-Rings to deliver neat, leak-resistant sealing. Specifically matched to Spyder offroad components, the rings come pre-treated in silicone oil for easier installation.

Manufacture and pre-treatment

The x-rings are formed from a silicone compound and undergo a controlled oil soak to stabilise their shape and sealing properties. This preparation helps prevent early oil loss and maintains shock integrity.

Maintenance and on-track benefits

Using pre-oiled rings reduces the initial running-in period and supports consistent damper action, which helps keep handling predictable during practice and racing sessions.

How do I fit the x-rings correctly?

Clean the shock bore, slide the pre-oiled x-ring into the seal seat and reassemble the shock carefully to avoid pinching the ring during installation.

Should I change ring size when changing shock oil weight?

Ring size is driven by the shock geometry rather than oil weight, so stick to the recommended x-ring size for your Spyder model when servicing the dampers.

What signs indicate a worn x-ring?

Look for flattened profiles, cuts, or oil seepage at the seal area; any of these signs suggest it is time to replace the x-ring to restore proper sealing.
