The Yokomo YS-850 Super Blend Shock Oil #850 is a silicone damping fluid designed for RC shock absorbers. It delivers a steady 850wt viscosity to keep damping predictable across typical operating temperatures found in electric and nitro models.
Switching oil weight changes how fast a damper compresses and rebounds, so using a heavier or lighter YS-850 will influence body roll, traction transitions, and the overall balance of the chassis. Use it while fine-tuning rebound and compression during track or on-road setup runs.
When servicing shocks, make sure the damper chamber is clean and bleed any trapped air before final assembly to ensure consistent performance. Inspect seals and piston condition for silicone compatibility and run short test laps after any oil change to confirm the desired response.
