Fine-tune suspension feel with Tamiya 53176 friction damper grease

For club racers and weekend tuners seeking reliable damping, Tamiya's Friction Damper Grease (Hard) gives a firmer response than stock fluids. The formula maintains steady damping over a range of temperatures, helping keep handling predictable lap after lap.

When to pick the hard friction grease

Choose this harder grade when you need firmer damping than standard kit grease. It performs particularly well on higher traction surfaces where greater viscosity helps control body motion and provides crisper cornering feedback.

Compatibility and application notes

While it is commonly used on Tamiya F103 and F103L chassis, Tamiya 53176 OP-176 can be applied to other friction damper setups that require firmer damping. The purple tint helps you see where grease has been placed for neat, repeatable application.

Yes. If your dampers rely on friction pads or simple piston surfaces, this harder grease can increase damping. Check fit and clearance before full application.
The package includes 5 grams of grease, enough for multiple damping setups depending on how many dampers you service.
Use a small brush or a toothpick to spread a thin, even layer on friction faces. Wipe excess to avoid drag on moving parts and test progressively to dial in feel.
