Precision 3Racing 48 Pitch 16T Pinion for Consistent Mesh

The 3Racing 48 Pitch Pinion Gear 16T is manufactured from 7075 aluminium and finished with a hard coating to extend service life under normal and demanding use. It is a straightforward upgrade to improve gear face durability without adding excess weight.

Advantages of the 3Racing 48 Pitch Pinion

The choice of 7075 aluminium keeps the pinion lightweight while the hard coating defends tooth surfaces against wear. This combination helps maintain predictable gear engagement and reduces replacement frequency.

Compatibility Guidance

This 16T pinion is made for 48 pitch systems and will fit many common spurs and drivetrains. Confirm that tooth counts and shaft adapters match your setup before installation to ensure smooth operation.

Practical Fitting Tips

Set correct backlash and ensure the pinion sits square to the spur. After installing the 3Racing pinion, run a short warm-up and recheck mesh and fasteners to confirm stable performance.

Changing to a different tooth count alters the overall ratio. This 16T pinion is a common size; compare it with your current pinion to estimate changes in acceleration and top speed.
Handle the pinion carefully, avoid abrasive contact with the tooth faces, and use the correct tools to fit the mount. Clean hands and a soft cloth prevent contaminating the coating.
Yes, the 7075 aluminium and hard coating make it versatile for various surfaces. Proper mesh and routine checks are key to long-term performance in either environment.
