To match tyres we also used to use foam Tyres and the durometer was good to test their hardness or softness whichever way you look
At it :0)

Already tried that Gaz - duro value isn't listed, nor is it on Midlands site.

I would say it would be quite hard to get a good reading from a single
Damper as its very small I think your best bet is to approach the manufacturer

I think the standard ones are 80 durometer?
I also think there is a 90 durometer coming out soon, but not positive about any of this!

Ok Rob, I don't disbelieve you, but why then have I seen red 80 duro ones for sale on the Bay which are sold as dampers for the FAI electric variant of the 700? Presumably, these would be softer than the stock ones?

[rapidgaz]

I have took a look, but it don't say. But they are not as hard as the vision 50 1s which are 90. So I would say same as rob. 80

My fleabay purchase from foreign climes has arrived.

These dampers are red in colour, are Align TRex branded for the 700E and have a F3C sticker on the pack. The part number is HN7024A - standard 700 dampers are HN7024

They don't feel particularly soft to me in the fingers, but time will tell once I get a chance to compare them to the original black ones.

We'll see.

Hi how long do you get from a set of dampers ?? Cheers Jason

I've had a feel of those new red dampers as well.
Definitely not as firm as the blacks
Still firm-ish though.

We will have stock very soon.
Cheers,
Rob
