The Yokomo YOKYS300 Super Blend Shock Oil #300 is a silicone-based oil intended for use in RC shock absorbers and suspension assemblies. It is marketed as a tuning fluid to modify damping response on model cars and is for hobbyist applications only.
The oil is suitable for any shock cartridge or threaded shock body that takes silicone fluids; it is not limited to a single chassis. Always consult your shock documentation to confirm recommended oil grades prior to swapping fluids.
To service shocks, drain the previous oil, inspect seals and pistons for wear, then refill and bleed according to the specific shock design. Make gradual changes when testing because small shifts in oil viscosity or trapped air can significantly affect damping. The label "#300" indicates a manufacturer grade to help select between weights.
Shock oil plays a role in compression and rebound damping alongside springs, pistons, and preload settings. Use Yokomo YOKYS300 to fine-tune handling characteristics like body roll and weight transfer on buggies and touring cars, testing adjustments on the track. Store the bottle sealed in a cool, dry place and avoid contaminating the fluid.
