thirtydaZe 0 Posted February 6, 2020 Item #42306 Just curious if anyone can give the the details on these springs? The description say 2 soft, 2 medium, and 2 hard. It then goes on to say: Marking sleeves for hard (yellow) and soft (red). The colors on the springs are Green Red and either Clear or Black. Anyhow just curious, which is the softest, which in the hardest? My assumption is Green Soft, Red Medium, Black Hard. Is this correct? Anyone know spring rates on these springs?

ThunderDragonCy 7878 Posted February 6, 2020 According to Tamiya website that set are super soft, soft and medium. Tamiya colour convention would suggest that green is supersoft and red is soft. I think the description from the vendor you used might be wrong. As for spring rates, i don't know. Tamiya are notorious for not releasing the spring rates of their springs. They aren't on the petitrc spring chart either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thirtydaZe 0 Posted February 6, 2020 Do you mind posting a link to where you found that information, i spent some time at the track googling last night and couldn't find quite what you have posted. I'm just looking for a solid place to go for reference. I was curious about the info i posted being wrong, however, the text i posted was from the tamiyausa website. https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/option-parts/rc-lg-dia-short-spring-set/ I'm trying to wrap my head around all the options tamiya has to offer, but sometimes it's a bit difficult. Thanks for your confirmation of the spring stiffness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thirtydaZe 0 Posted February 6, 2020 I appreciate it. I guess i knew of that website being better than the tamiyausa site. I actually misread your previous post a bit, I was under the impression that you had available a spring chart designated to Tamiya Springs. Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.
