Long Life Tamiya 54981 Aluminium Pinion for RC Builds

The Tamiya 54981 - 06 Module Hard Coated Aluminum Pinion Gear (27T) is a dependable replacement for models needing tougher gearing. Crafted from aluminium with a hard coat, it is aimed at improving service life under sustained use.

Reduced Friction for Steadier Drive

The pinion profile is designed to lower friction when meshing with the spur, which helps drivetrain efficiency and reduces operational noise. This yields smoother throttle transitions and less drivetrain lash.

Model Compatibility and Notes

This 27T pinion fits a variety of Tamiya chassis including TC-01, TA07 PRO, TA07 MS, TA06 series, TB-04 series, FF-04 EVO, FF-03 series, TB Evo.7, and XV-01 PRO. For TT-02 and TT-02D cars the separate Item 54500 RC TT02 High Speed Gear Set 68T is required for correct compatibility.

Yes, the Tamiya 54981 is suitable for brushless setups, though you should check overall gearing and motor specs to avoid excessive current draw that could damage gears.
Inspect the pinion regularly after runs, looking for chipping or wear on the coated surface. Replace if you notice significant degradation to maintain reliable gear engagement.
Set an initial mesh using a thin shim or paper method, then run the model briefly and recheck. Proper mesh prevents premature wear and keeps noise low.
