Refine Your Dampers with Tamiya VG Damper Oil 40

Model builders focused on handling detail will find Tamiya 42176 VG Damper Oil 40 useful for fine suspension adjustments. This silicone oil enhances shock smoothness and helps maintain stable handling on varied layouts. Its 40 viscosity offers a measured balance of firmness and compliance for tuners seeking repeatable setups.

Key Benefits of VG Damper Oil 40

Compared with mineral alternatives, this silicone oil lowers internal drag and supports steadier shock action. The 50cc pack size suits multiple maintenance sessions and careful dosing. Its consistent flow rate makes it easier to dial in the exact damping needed for different driving conditions.

Using the Oil on Track

Employ Tamiya VG Damper Oil 40 to adapt suspension behaviour to the course. It is well suited to moderate and firmer damping roles, helping to control body roll and improve traction on uneven surfaces. Regular inspection and replacement when contaminated will preserve shock performance.

Using a 40 weight generally firms the suspension, reducing body roll and improving stability in corners, though you should tune spring rates and anti-roll settings alongside oil weight.
Silicone oil is compatible with most seal materials, but inspect older seals for wear before filling to avoid leaks. Replace worn seals to prevent contamination and loss of damping.
When moving to VG Damper Oil 40, consider slightly firmer springs or altered ride height to match the slower shock response and maintain handling balance.
