Consistent Mesh with Arrowmax AM-348017

The Arrowmax AM-348017 pinion is engineered for modelers seeking steady gear contact. Fabricated from 7075 hard aluminium, it delivers robust tooth geometry that helps keep gear patterns stable across sessions.

Ideal Uses for a 48P 17T Pinion

This 48-pitch, 17-tooth pinion suits a wide variety of electric models where fine-tuning ratios matters. It is a practical choice for balancing acceleration and top speed on prepared surfaces.

Why 7075 Matters

7075 hard aluminium is selected for its strength and fatigue resistance, so the Arrowmax AM-348017 holds up well under repeated loading while remaining light enough to minimise inertia.

Installation and Upkeep

Fit the pinion carefully to ensure true alignment with the spur and torque the fixing correctly. Routine checks for chips or uneven wear will keep your drivetrain running smoothly.

Measure your existing spur or consult the car manual; 48P is stamped or noted for compatible gear sets. Matching pitch is essential for correct meshing.
Yes, changing the pinion tooth count adjusts ratio. Moving to more teeth raises top speed at the expense of acceleration, and fewer teeth do the opposite.
Replace the pinion if you spot bent, chipped or rounded teeth, or if noise and vibration increase despite correct mesh settings.
