Tamiya 53978 - TRF501X Precision Low Friction Piston Set  [53978]

Tune Suspension Feel with Tamiya 53978 - TRF501X

If you want tighter suspension control, the Tamiya 53978 TRF501X Low Friction Piston Set is a practical upgrade. The pistons are machined from durable polyacetal (POM) for low friction performance, helping hobbyists achieve more consistent damping and finer setup adjustments. Built for the TRF501X chassis, these pistons let you tailor handling across different track conditions.

Benefits of Polyacetal Construction

Polyacetal provides low friction and reliable wear characteristics, which helps the shock move more smoothly under load. Reduced internal drag translates to more consistent responses and easier tuning, whether you are chasing stability or sharper turn-in behaviour.

Fitment Notes and Installation Advice

These pistons are intended for use with the TRF501X shock assemblies and are not compatible with CVA or TRF dampers. When fitting, check your shock bores and assemble carefully to preserve seal and shaft alignment for optimal performance.
