Tamiya 40.7mm Titanium Coated RC Shock Piston Rod - 54042

The Tamiya 54042 is a 40.7mm titanium-coated piston rod designed as an upgraded shock absorber component for Tamiya RC cars. The titanium coating gives the rod a harder, more wear-resistant surface compared to a standard uncoated steel rod, helping it hold up better against the friction and heat generated inside the shock body during sustained use. If your existing piston rod is showing signs of wear or scoring, TAM54042 is the direct replacement to restore smooth shock action.

Key Features

• 40.7mm length — confirm this matches your existing piston rod before ordering
• Titanium coating provides a harder surface than standard steel rods, improving wear resistance against repeated shock cycling
• Designed as a direct-fit Tamiya spare part, maintaining factory shock geometry and travel
