Overview
The Team Losi Racing Seal Set, X-Rings, G3 3mm V2 (4 shocks) is an essential replacement and maintenance component for competitive RC racers using TLR vehicles. This genuine factory-approved seal set is specifically engineered for the G3 shock system in 3mm configuration, offering the precision fit and reliable performance that serious RC car UK enthusiasts demand. Whether you're preparing your TLR buggy or TLR truggy for race day, maintaining your shocks with quality OEM seals ensures consistent damping performance and extends the operational life of your suspension system.
High-stakes RC racing puts even the toughest radio control vehicles through constant punishment on the track. Crashing, cartwheeling, and coming down from jumps all inevitably take their toll on suspension components. The stress of competitive RC racing causes unavoidable wear and tear on shock seals, which can degrade over time from exposure to moisture, dirt, and the rigorous demands of the racetrack. By keeping genuine TLR replacement parts on hand, you'll be prepared to maintain your shocks and keep your RC car in winning condition.
This seal set has been used and successfully track-tested by TLR factory drivers under competition conditions, ensuring that you're choosing a component proven in the most demanding racing environments. Unlike generic seal replacements, these X-rings are manufactured by Team Losi Racing specifically for their G3 shock platform, guaranteeing precise fitment and optimal sealing performance.
Key Features
- X-Ring Design — The X-ring profile provides superior sealing characteristics compared to standard O-rings, reducing fluid leakage and maintaining consistent damping performance throughout your racing session, which is critical for maintaining predictable handling on the track.
- G3 3mm V2 Compatibility — These seals are specifically designed for the G3 shock system in 3mm diameter configuration (V2 specification), ensuring they will fit perfectly without modification and function as intended by TLR engineers.
- Set of Four Seals — The package includes four complete seal sets, providing enough replacements for all four shocks on your TLR buggy or truggy, or offering spares for your pit bag as backup consumables.
- Factory-Approved Component — As genuine Team Losi Racing parts manufactured specifically for TLR vehicles, these seals have been engineered to the highest specifications and provide the perfect direct fit without compatibility concerns.
- Track-Tested Performance — These components have been used and proven effective by TLR factory drivers in actual competition racing, delivering the reliability you need when championship points are on the line.
- Essential Maintenance Item — Shock seals are consumable wear items that require periodic replacement to maintain optimal suspension performance, making this a must-have component for any serious RC racer.
Technical Performance
The Seal Set, X-Rings, G3 3mm V2 represents the critical interface between your shock shaft and cylinder, directly controlling fluid containment and damping consistency. X-ring seals offer superior performance to traditional O-rings because their X-shaped cross-section creates four contact points instead of two, dramatically reducing fluid bypass and maintaining the precise damping characteristics your suspension was designed to deliver. The 3mm diameter specification ensures compatibility with the G3 shock platform across TLR's range of 1/8 scale and 1/10 scale racing vehicles. Regular replacement of these seals is essential because they naturally wear under the constant compression and extension cycles experienced during racing. When seals deteriorate, shock fluid can escape past the shaft, resulting in inconsistent damping, unpredictable handling characteristics, and potential loss of competitiveness on the track. By maintaining your shocks with quality OEM seals, you ensure that your suspension performs consistently throughout your racing day, whether you're competing in buggy or truggy classes.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between X-rings and standard O-ring seals for RC shocks? — X-rings feature an X-shaped cross-section that creates four contact points with the shock shaft instead of two with a traditional O-ring. This design provides superior sealing, reduces fluid leakage, and maintains more consistent damping performance throughout your racing session, which translates to more predictable handling and better lap times.
- How often should I replace shock seals on my RC buggy or truggy? — Shock seals are consumable wear items that should be inspected regularly and replaced when you notice any signs of fluid leakage from your shocks or when damping performance becomes inconsistent. High-frequency racers typically replace seals every 2-3 months depending on usage intensity and track conditions.
- Will these seals fit my TLR vehicle? — Yes, these seals are specifically designed for Team Losi Racing G3 shock systems in 3mm diameter configuration (V2 specification). They provide a perfect factory fit without modification and are guaranteed to work with all TLR vehicles that use this shock platform, including the TLR 22, 22X-4, 8IGHT-X/E, and 8IGHT-XT/XTE models.
- Are these genuine Team Losi Racing parts? — Absolutely. These seals are manufactured by Team Losi Racing specifically for their G3 shock system and have been track-tested by TLR factory drivers under competition conditions. Choosing genuine OEM parts ensures perfect fitment and reliable performance, preventing the disappointment of discovering incompatible components at a critical moment during racing.
- What tools do I need to replace my shock seals? — Basic shock maintenance typically requires a small screwdriver or hex key to disassemble your shock body, clean hands, and the replacement seal set. Refer to your TLR vehicle's instruction manual for detailed shock service procedures to ensure proper installation.
- Can I use these seals if my shocks are leaking? — Yes, in most cases replacing worn seals will restore proper shock function if leakage is the only issue. However, if your shock piston or cylinder has been damaged, additional repairs may be necessary. Always inspect the internal shock components during seal replacement to ensure no other damage is present.
