Technical Performance
The Associated Green Slime Shock Lube represents premium quality engineering support for RC suspension systems. Unlike generic lubricants that may degrade seals or attract dirt, this specialist formulation is engineered specifically for the demands of RC shock maintenance. The lube works by creating a smooth interface between the internal shock seal and the moving shaft, reducing friction that can cause sluggish suspension response or seal leakage. This is particularly important in RC applications where suspension geometry is critical to handling, and any loss of performance can significantly impact lap times or off-road capability. The product is compatible with all major RC shock types and works equally well on oil-damped shocks across 1/10 scale buggies, trucks, and specialist racing vehicles. Regular application during shock servicing—typically when rebuilding shocks or performing routine maintenance—ensures that your suspension components maintain optimal performance throughout the racing season. The Green Slime is applied as part of the assembly process, coating the internal seal surfaces before shock oil is added, creating a protective barrier that promotes smooth operation and extends component lifespan.
