Description
Overview
The Tamiya Gear Differential Putty is a specialized tuning material used to control the action of sealed gear differential units. When high-viscosity silicone oils aren't thick enough to achieve the desired differential lock-up behavior, this putty provides a near-lock performance that dramatically limits differential slip.
The putty comes in a convenient roll format that can be easily cut into 3mm pieces with scissors and inserted directly into the differential. This provides a cleaner, more precise way to stiffen your differential compared to mixing thick oils or using other methods.
