Description
The Team Associated Factory Team 12mm V2 Shock Pistons, 2mm thickness with 2x1.5mm holes (AS91895), provide a lower-damping option versus standard 2.5mm kit pistons. The thinner V2 design increases fluid flow to reduce pack during fast impacts from jumps and bumps, giving a touch more traction and a more forgiving feel.
Key Benefits
- 2mm-thick V2 piston with 2-hole (1.5mm) valving
- Decreases damping and pack compared with 2.5mm pistons
- Smoother over bumps and landings; calmer, more drivable response
- Helpful when running lightweight LCG batteries
Tuning Guidance
- Use when you want less pack, better bump handling, or slightly slower responsiveness
- Conditions to try: low-traction dirt for added grip
- High-traction tracks with bumps for a more forgiving feel
Pro tip: increase Team Associated shock oil by approximately +2.5wt to +5wt (e.g. 30wt to 32.5–35wt) with these 2mm pistons for stable bump handling. Current Team Associated kits include 2.5mm 2-hole pistons; use those as a baseline for comparison.

Specifications
Factory Team introduces a new tuning option for off-road 12mm shocks. The new 2mm thickness V2 shock pistons decrease damping and pack compared to their standard 2.5mm thickness kit counterparts. Keeping the same 2-hole valving, the shorter thickness piston allows for faster fluid flow, and less pack (pack = increased rate of resistance) while the shock takes fast impacts from jumps and bumps. This results in a small shift, giving the car more traction and less pack, which racers can tune for an advantage in a wide range of conditions.
Pro Tip: Adjust Team Associated shock oil +2.5wt up to +5wt thicker (ex: 30wt increase to 32.5wt OR 35wt). You can run the 2mm thickness pistons with a thicker oil, and it will still handle good in bumps.

Some rule-of-thumb cases for using the 2mm thickness vs. 2.5mm thickness pistons:
Use optional 2mm thickness in cases where you want less pack, better bump handling, or slower responsiveness. Conditions to try:
- To increase grip on low-traction dirt tracks
- High-traction tracks with bumps or when you need a more forgiving overall feel
- Running lightweight LCG batteries (lower overall car weight) to make the car less responsive and easier to drive
Use standard 2.5mm thickness pistons for more pack, higher responsiveness, and a more responsive feel.
- Current Team Associated kits come with 2.5mm thickness 2-hole pistons -- use these as a baseline for comparison
