Refine Handling with Tamiya 54717 Silicone Oil 900

Tamiya Silicone Oil 900 is packaged in a 40ml bottle so you have enough fluid for repeated tuning sessions. The volume makes it practical for routine maintenance and setup experiments.

Ideal Use Cases for Dampers

The 900 grade is a higher viscosity that gives a firmer damping feel in oil-filled dampers. That extra firmness can stabilise the model at speed and reduce excessive pitch and roll on smoother circuits.

Fast Identification Using Colour Codes

Each viscosity level from Tamiya carries a distinct colour marking, making it simple to grab the correct oil when you need to change damping rates quickly. This is handy at meets and practice days.

Is this oil suitable for different shock designs?

Yes, it is compatible with common oil-filled shock designs used across many RC cars, provided the shock calls for silicone damping fluid.

Will a higher viscosity damage seals?

Using higher viscosity oil should not damage seals if they are in good condition; however aged or hardened seals may leak and should be replaced.

How do I choose between viscosities for my track?

Choose heavier viscosities like 900 for smoother high-traction surfaces where you want less body movement, and lighter oils for low-traction or rough conditions.
