Tekno RC offers revised Delrin shock cartridge set

Tekno RC have announced the release of a revised shock cartridge set that further improves efficiency and performance the company’s shock absorbers. The shock cartridge set, with the part number TKR6146B has been revised from TKR6146 by reducing the height of the bottom guide to allow additional up-travel. This results in better bump handling and jump landing. Centre and top guides remain the same. Tekno RC recommends using the new cartridges with the EB48.3 and NB48.3 for increased up-travel and improved rough track handling. The standard TKR6146 set will continue to have the extended lower shock guide and is recommended for the ET48.3 and NT48.3 for increased shock shaft support.
