TAMIYA F103RM Friction Damper Pole Precision F103RM-13 by 3Racing  [F103RM-13]

Friction damper pole for accurate tuning

The F103RM-13 is an exact-fit friction damper pole for the TAMIYA F103RM chassis aimed at hobbyists seeking finer manual damping control. It replaces the internal pole within the friction damper assembly to help achieve smoother setup changes.

Installation involves opening the damper unit, removing the existing pole, cleaning and inspecting the internals, then seating the F103RM-13 pole and refitting the original retainers and screws. Standard hobby tools suffice for this swap.

As a tuning item the pole modifies how the friction damper transmits force, letting you make smaller, more predictable adjustments to rebound and compression feel on a 1/10 touring car.

Routine care: prevent contamination, check for play or marks on the pole, and replace at the first sign of wear to maintain steady damping performance.
