Overview
The Team Losi Racing Seal Set, X-Rings, and Shock Cap O-Rings (Z-TLR233005) is an essential maintenance and replacement component package designed for competitive 1/10 scale RC buggy racing. This genuine TLR parts set is specifically engineered for the TLR 22 and 22-4 series vehicles, which have established a proven track record in the sport, including ROAR Nationals victories. Whether you are a seasoned RC racing competitor, a weekend track enthusiast, or someone committed to maintaining your RC car UK to the highest standard, this seal and o-ring set ensures your shock absorbers continue to perform at their peak.
Team Losi Racing components are recognised worldwide for their precision engineering and championship-winning pedigree. The TLR product development team applies the same expertise that puts Team Losi RC vehicles high on the podium to all TLR parts and maintenance supplies. This seal set is no exception—it has been used and successfully track-tested by TLR Factory Team drivers under genuine competition conditions. When you choose genuine TLR replacement parts, you are investing in the same quality materials and manufacturing standards that have proven themselves in the most demanding racing environments.
Regular maintenance is critical in highly competitive RC racing, as even the most robust RC buggy will experience wear and tear from vibration, impacts, and the punishment that comes with jumping and racing at high speeds. The shock absorbers are among the most critical components of your TLR 22 series vehicle, and the seals and o-rings within them directly affect how smoothly and consistently your suspension responds on the track. This comprehensive seal and o-ring set gives you everything needed to restore your shocks to factory specifications.
Key Features
- Complete Seal and O-Ring Package — This set includes x-rings and shock cap o-rings, providing comprehensive sealing solutions for your TLR 22 and 22-4 shock absorbers, ensuring consistent damping performance and preventing fluid leakage.
- Genuine Team Losi Racing Components — Manufactured by TLR using the same precision tooling and materials as the original parts, guaranteeing perfect fit and authentic performance that matches factory specifications.
- Factory-Tested for Competition — Every component in this set has been validated and successfully tested by TLR Factory Team drivers in real competitive racing conditions, proving its reliability and effectiveness at the highest levels of RC racing.
- Essential Maintenance Supply — Seals and o-rings are wear items that degrade over time due to exposure to shock fluid, temperature changes, and repeated compression cycles; having replacements on hand is vital for maintaining peak suspension performance.
- Compatible with TLR 22 Series — Designed specifically for all TLR 22 variants including the 22X-4 ELITE and other 22 series buggies, ensuring compatibility and proper fitment without modification.
- Affordable Routine Maintenance — This cost-effective replacement set allows you to perform essential shock maintenance without having to purchase an entire shock assembly, keeping your racing budget efficient.
Technical Performance
Shock absorbers are fundamental to suspension performance in competitive 1/10 scale RC buggy racing, and the sealing components within them are critical to maintaining consistent damping characteristics throughout a race day. The x-rings and shock cap o-rings in this TLR set are precision-manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring a perfect seal that prevents shock fluid from leaking and maintains the precise damping curves that your suspension has been tuned to deliver. Over time, seals and o-rings deteriorate due to exposure to shock fluid additives, UV light, temperature fluctuations, and the repeated compression and extension cycles that occur during racing. When these seals begin to fail, you may notice inconsistent suspension response, fluid seepage from shock caps, or a gradual loss of damping performance. The x-ring design provides superior sealing compared to traditional o-rings due to its four-contact-point geometry, which creates a more robust seal under dynamic conditions. TLR has engineered this seal set to maintain the exact specifications of the original components, ensuring that when you install these replacements, your shock performance remains true to the tuning specifications that your vehicle was designed around. This is particularly important in competitive racing, where even slight variations in suspension response can affect handling balance and lap times. The materials used in these seals are selected specifically for compatibility with shock fluids and the operating environment of high-performance RC buggies, ensuring durability and longevity even under intense racing conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- When should I replace the seals and o-rings in my RC buggy shocks? — Seals and o-rings are wear items that should be inspected regularly during routine maintenance. If you notice shock fluid leaking from the shock caps, if your suspension feels less responsive than usual, or if you have been racing intensively over multiple days or weeks, it is time to replace them. For serious competitors who race frequently, having spare seal sets on hand allows you to perform preventative maintenance between major races.
- Are these seals compatible with all TLR 22 models? — Yes, this seal set is designed for all TLR 22 variants, including the TLR 22X-4 ELITE and other 22 series buggies. TLR has designed these parts to fit across the entire 22 series range, making this set a versatile maintenance component for any collector or racer who owns multiple TLR 22 vehicles.
- How do I know if my shock seals are failing? — Common signs of failing shock seals include visible shock fluid leaking from the shock cap area, a noticeably softer or less responsive suspension feel, or inconsistent handling behaviour on the track. If you observe any of these signs, it is time to replace the seal set to restore your shock performance.
- What tools do I need to replace these seals? — TLR manufactures dedicated shock tools that make seal replacement straightforward and precise. The TLR Shock Tools Composite (model TLR72003) is specifically designed for working with TLR 22 series shocks and is available separately, making this maintenance task accessible even for users without extensive mechanical experience.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Whilst seal replacement is a maintenance task that requires some mechanical care, it is not extremely difficult and is a valuable skill for any RC enthusiast to develop. Beginners who are committed to learning proper maintenance techniques will find this to be an excellent learning opportunity, and the investment in a shock tool set will pay dividends throughout your RC hobby.
- Why should I use genuine TLR seals instead of aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine TLR seals are manufactured to the exact specifications of your vehicle and have been tested by TLR Factory Team drivers in competitive conditions. Using genuine parts ensures that your shock performance remains consistent with the engineering specifications your buggy was designed around, which is particularly important if you are competing in races where every fraction of a second matters.
