Why we make this stuff

Built for the time between runs.

When the car comes off the track, the bottle goes back on the bench. Every shock fill, every diff change, every grease point — that's where the next race result is actually decided.

The Range

One product per job, across the car.

Suspension, drivetrain, bearings, electronics — there's a Rhodex oil or grease formulated for each. Browse by category.

Why Rhodex

A lubricant for the job, not a do-it-all.

A lot of what gets sold as "RC lubricant" is industrial product in a smaller bottle. Rhodex is formulated the other way around — starting from what the part actually needs, then making the oil or grease to suit.

20 viscosities, 50 cSt steps

From 50 cSt up to 1000 cSt for shocks, and 2,000 cSt up to 100,000 cSt for diffs. The viscosity you need is on the shelf — no blending, no rounding off.

PFPE option for the hard jobs

The Heliox line uses PFPE base stocks — the chemistry used in aerospace bearings and high-vacuum applications. For ceramic bearings and severe-load drivetrains, it's a tier above conventional grease.

Right grease for the part

Ball diff grease is different from thrust grease. Plastic gear grease is silicone-based so it doesn't attack nylon. Thirteen greases, each formulated for what it goes into.

Pure silicone, made to spec

What's on the label is what's in the bottle. No PAO blends, no mineral oil thinners, no thickener additives. The 400 cSt this month behaves like the 400 cSt last month.

Made in the UK

Formulated and bottled in Britain. We control the batches and the QC, so what ships matches what's on the label.

Holds viscosity under heat

The silicone fluids are stabilised so they don't thin out the way generic shock oils do mid-run. 400 cSt at the start of a heat is still close to 400 cSt at the end.

The flagship

Silicone Performance Fluid

Twenty viscosities from 50 cSt to 1000 cSt, in clean 50 cSt steps. Pure silicone — no blends, no thinners, no thickener additives.

The viscosity on the label is the viscosity in the bottle, and it stays that way under racing heat. Each batch is held to the same tight cSt tolerance, so when you make a setup change, you're actually changing the oil — not chasing batch variance.

That's what's worth knowing: the next bottle behaves like the last one. Setup notes carry over. Race-day repeatability is the point.
