Corner Speed RC lubricants

Coming from Corner Speed RC are three new lubricants for various applications in RC racing. First up is the Max-Rev high speed bearing oil, a low viscosity lubricant. It has been carefully formulated and tested to maximise the efficiency of the lube in the toughest of conditions. It contents a special additive that helps the lube to working consistency under extremely high RPM and it comes in a 10ml needle tip bottle that make it easy to apply on any small bearings and parts. Next up is the Maxi-Free CV joint lube, a deeply penetrating teflon lubricant that works for on-road and off-road applications. The wet lubricant dries out on the parts, leaving a super hard and extremely durable film that does not attract dirt and keeps away carpet fluff and tyre rubber. The fluid comes in an easy to use fine tip bottle. Last but not least comes the Steel 2 Plastic dry lubricant for all metal-to-plastic and plastic-to-plastic connections. It prevents dirt and grime to build up inside plastic joints for long lifespan while helping them working consistently in different conditions. The lube is great for all on-road and off-road applications.

SMJ Ultra joint lubricant & grease

Coming from SMJ are their new Ultra joint lubricant and grease, two chemicals developed to reduce drivetrain wear. First up is the Ultra joint lubricant, a lower viscosity oil for all metal-to-metal combinations such as driveshafts and outdrives. The lube greatly reduces wear to cross pins, couplers, driveshafts and wheel axles and thanks to its low viscosity it still sticks perfectly to the parts, offering a free drivetrain feeling and improved drivetrain efficiency. Also new is the Ultra joint grease, a heavy duty product for driveshafts, cup joints and thrust bearings whose high viscosity allows for high adhesion and less chance of flinging away even under high loads or high RPM. Both products were developed in cooperation with full-scale car tuning brand G-max and they are available now.

Scorpion ball bearing & one-way oils

Available now from Scorpion are special ball bearing and one-way lubricants. The oils were developed by German nitro on-road frontrunner Toni Gruber and Italy’s Pepe Group, ensuring maximum performance and protection. The ball bearing oil will deliver exceptional lubrication, protection and care even for the highly stressed bearings of 1/8th nitro on-road cars but it is also perfect for all other applications including off-road vehicles. The one-way oil is ideal for delicate roller bearings, offering perfect protection and lubrication while preventing outdrive slippage. Both oils come in 16ml bottles.

Scorpion after run & air filter oils

Available from Toni Gruber’s Scorpion brand are competition-grade after run and air filter oils. Both were developed in cooperation with the Pepe Group with the after run oil ensuring maximised engine life as it keeps the engine internals in best possible shape when the engine is not in use for a longer time, for example over the winter season. The chemical neutralises corrosive residue, preventing harming rust build-up. As for the air filter oil, the sticky sauce prevents dust from entering the engine, ensuring prolonged engine life while ensuring best possible airflow at the same time. Both oils are available in 50ml bottles.

Fenix introduce new Pro10 diffs & silicone fluids

Fenix have introduced a new Pro10 gear differential specifically designed for the popular VIP Performance VTE kit, a prototype ball differential as well as a range of silicone fluids. Starting with the VIP gear diff, the assembly uses a 7mm titanium axle and a new diff housing that allows for proper 235mm specifications. Included in the kit comes a clamping diff hub with M3 and 4-40 unc threads that allows to use either of the two. As for the prototype ball differential, it builds on a 1/4 inch titanium axle for durability and precision, it utilises 16 1/8 inch diff balls for smoothness and like the above gear diff, it will make use of the double thread clamping hub. Last but not least comes Fenix’s new silicone fluid range that covers everything from shock to touring diff up to gear diff silicone oils.
