ONG have introduced a new shock cap design which have been made in Italy in Ergal 7075 T6 and then hard anodised in a gun metal grey colour. The 6 upper machined pockets on the cap have a dual purpose, reducing the weight of the cap, making it the lightest on the market as well as helping with heat dissipation. The 4 bleed holes coupled to the new membranes will allow a rebound close to 0 and a homogeneous response between the shock absorbers once closed. The kit includes shock membranes.

The 3 bleed holes coupled to the new membranes will allow a rebound close to 0 and a homogeneous response between the shock absorbers once closed. The kit includes 12 membranes with 3 different hardnesses that will allow you to vary the behaviour of the shock absorber based on the track, the driving style and temperature.

More new parts from ONG for the Associated RC8B3.2 with the release of these bar pins & shock pins. Made in Italy by RC-Project on the latest generation turning machines, all the pins are made of 7075-T6 aluminium and hard anodised with a thickness of 50µ. The diameters have been modified compared to the originals to have a better contact between pin, arm and ball and have been modified to eliminate the axial play. The shock pins are M3.5 threaded to ensure better safety than the original ones. The weight of the bar pins are just 2.25grams, while the shock pins are 2.9grams.
More new items from Davide Ongaro’s ONG brand, in partnership with RC-Project, with the release of their new Offroad Clutch System. Developed to make the engine power output more linear and smoother to provide the best traction, vehicle drivability and improve fuel consumption. The 34mm flywheel has been made from steel and features a collar to protect the engine’s front bearing from dirt, even in high-dust conditions. The clutch system comes with 3 aluminium shoes and 1.0 mm springs but you can also get optional parts such as 0.9 mm springs. The nut, the cone and the 3 shims are included in the kit.

This new ONG clutch retaining screw has been made from grade 5 Titanium due to its better thermal expansion characteristics compared to steel. This will make it possible to unscrew/screw without problems, even with a hot engine. It has a total length of 9mm, of which 6mm are thread, and a protrusion from the crankshaft of only 3mm so as to avoid collisions with the tank in case of excessive flex of the chassis. The new geometry eliminates any rubbing between bearing/bell, while the additional external diameter protects the bearing from dust and foreign debris.

Following on from the announcement of the ONG brand, a collaboration between Italian company RC Project and current 1/8th Offroad World Champion Davide Ongaro, the first items have now hit the market. The two new products to be released are brass weights for the Associated RC8B3.1/3.2. The black coated weight perfectly integrates into the car without touching any components and leave the necessary space to allow the chassis the flex freely. Available in 30gram and 15gram versions they are easily fixed to the chassis using the two M3 threaded holes.
