Refining Dampening with Serpent Square Pistons

Serpent 500488 square shock pistons provide an alternative flow profile for Spyder 1/10 off-road cars. The kit includes four machined pistons in a 2-hole 1.3mm pattern and is suitable for both 2WD and 4WD variants.

Precision Machining for Predictable Feel

The Serpent 500488 pistons are produced from premium bar material and finished to tight tolerances to deliver consistent shock response. Accurate dimensions help ensure repeatable damping behaviour session after session.

Tuneability Across Track Conditions

As part of a range of piston choices, this kit lets you select flow characteristics to match surface and driving style. Serpent also offers 3-hole 1.2mm and 4-hole 1.1mm pistons to expand your tuning options.

Will these fit my existing shock cartridges?

They will fit standard Serpent Spyder 1/10 shock cartridges that accept this piston design; confirm your shock plate and shaft fit before ordering.

When should I pick a 3-hole or 4-hole piston instead?

Choose a 3-hole 1.2mm or 4-hole 1.1mm piston for increased flow and a softer damping character on rougher surfaces, while the 2-hole 1.3mm is better for firmer response.

How often should I service these pistons?

Inspect pistons and seals during routine shock rebuilds; frequency depends on running conditions but check seals whenever you open a shock and replace parts showing wear.

Do piston choices change spring selection?

Piston flow affects perceived spring rate, so after changing piston patterns you may need to tweak spring stiffness or oil to rebalance handling for best results.
