Tune Friction and Longevity with Tamiya 42280 Fluorine Lubricant

The Tamiya 42280 Fluorine Coating Lubricant comes in a 10ml bottle and is designed to improve the operation of suspension and drivetrain parts. By cutting friction at pivots and gears, it helps your RC model run smoother and reduces wear on vital components.

Advantages of Fluorine Coating

Fluorine-based coatings lower resistance between metal and plastic parts, which improves steering feel and throttle response. For RC setups this translates to crisper handling, reduced play in linkages, and less component fatigue over time.

Practical Application Tips

Apply a drop to hinge pins and ball joints to free up movement.
Coat gear teeth and shafts sparingly to support a clean power transfer.
Reapply after heavy use or after cleaning to protect against rust and wear.

Can I use this on both plastic and metal parts?

Yes, Tamiya 42280 works on a range of materials found in RC models. Apply sparingly on plastic linkages and metal shafts to avoid excess buildup.

How often should I reapply the lubricant?

A light top-up after a few runs or whenever you service your suspension and drivetrain will keep performance consistent. Frequency depends on driving conditions and heat exposure.

Will it affect bearing performance?

This coating can reduce friction around bearing seals and races, but for sealed roller bearings you may still prefer a dedicated bearing lubricant. Test on a small area first.
