Technical Performance
This Team Associated Silicone Grease is engineered with precision to meet the exacting standards required for RC transmission maintenance. Silicone-based lubricants offer several performance advantages over conventional greases. They provide excellent thermal stability, meaning they maintain their protective properties even when your transmission generates heat during high-performance driving. The silicone formulation also offers superior water resistance, which is valuable for RC enthusiasts who occasionally drive in damp conditions or during outdoor winter racing in the UK. The grease's consistent viscosity ensures it spreads evenly across gear trains without becoming too thin under load or too thick to penetrate fine mechanical tolerances. When applied to the correct lubrication points as recommended by your RC model's manual, this grease creates a protective film on gear teeth and bearing surfaces that reduces friction, minimises wear, and extends component lifespan. The clean formulation resists attracting dirt and sand, which means your transmission stays cleaner for longer and requires less frequent complete disassembly for cleaning. This makes maintenance faster and easier, whether you're preparing for a competitive race or maintaining your casual RC car for weekend bashing.
