Precision Aluminium Damper Retainer for TRF Models

The Tamiya 49311 TRF Damper Aluminum Retainer in blue is a precision replacement for the standard plastic spring retainer, aimed at modellers wanting improved solidity and refined suspension behaviour. This machined aluminium retainer secures the spring more firmly and presents a clean, anodised finish.

Why Switch from Plastic to Aluminium

Aluminium maintains its form under repeated load better than plastic, reducing deformation and keeping suspension geometry true. Using the blue retainer helps preserve damper alignment and ensures more repeatable performance lap after lap.

Engineered for TRF Compatibility

Designed to fit TRF-spec shock assemblies, the retainer installs easily during regular damper servicing. It is suited to competitive drivers and hobbyists who prioritise consistent handling and low-maintenance upgrades.

It is made to fit standard TRF-style shock tops. If you use non-standard aftermarket caps, verify dimensions to ensure a correct fit.
Tighten using the same torque you apply to the original plastic part. Avoid over-tightening metal to metal to preserve the anodised finish and threads.
The anodised layer offers good resistance to corrosion and wear, though regular cleaning after wet use helps maintain the finish.
Yes, the retainer works with a range of spring rates; pairing with lighter or heavier springs is a tuning choice and the retainer will keep the spring seated reliably.
Inspect for burrs or nicks during routine shock servicing and clean with mild detergent. Replace if the retainer shows significant damage from impacts.
