Durable Titanium Rods Built for TRF501X

The Tamiya 54042 titanium coated piston rods are engineered for use with the TRF501X, giving hobbyists a tougher option to reduce wear during frequent running. The hard coating lowers friction and helps keep damper action consistent lap after lap.

How Titanium Coating Helps Dampers

A titanium finish resists abrasive particles and reduces dust buildup on the rod surface, which preserves smooth movement and extends seal life. This makes the rods a practical choice for users who run on gritty or mixed surfaces.

Fitting and Field Use

These piston rods suit enthusiasts focused on reliable suspension performance and reduced maintenance. They install in TRF501X shock assemblies and contribute to longer intervals between service sessions.

They are specified for the TRF501X. Some other shocks may accept the same diameter and stroke, but you should confirm fitment before installing.
Wipe rods clean after runs, check for scoring, replace damaged seals promptly, and use recommended shock oils to minimise wear.
The coating reduces friction for smoother travel but does not alter spring rates or internal damping settings. The result is more consistent performance rather than changed ride characteristics.
