Benefits of Tamiya VG Damper Oil 40

Tamiya VG Damper Oil 40 reduces internal friction compared to mineral oils, helping shocks work more predictably. Supplied in a 50cc bottle, it is suited for precision tuning, whether you are prepping for a race or refining street and off-road setups. Its stable consistency makes incremental adjustments easier for serious tuners.

How to Use and Adjust

Use Tamiya VG Damper Oil 40 to tailor suspension feel to your course. Its 40 weight is best for moderate to firmer damping settings, aiding stability in corners and over uneven terrain. Regular checks for contamination and seal condition will help maintain consistent damping performance.

Oil weight alters how quickly a damper moves. Lower weights let the shock compress and rebound faster for a softer feel, while higher weights slow movement for firmer damping and improved control on rough sections.
Yes, Tamiya VG Damper Oil 40 is compatible with most oil-filled dampers. Check the shock manufacturer recommendations for any specific limits before swapping oils.
Replace oil when you notice foaming, dirt contamination, or degraded damping feel. For frequent track use, inspect and refresh oil every few events to keep performance consistent.
