20T Second Gear for MTX-5 Gearbox

Arrowmax AM-MTX-T2718 is a hardened 20-tooth second gear intended as an aftermarket 7075 aluminium replacement for Mugen MTX-5 drivetrains. The gear transmits torque between the motor pinion and spur while resisting wear during intensive running.

When installing, check gear mesh against the spur and pinion, ensure shafts and bearings are free from play, and confirm axial alignment before power testing. The 7075 aluminium grade prioritises dimensional stability and reduced wear under load.

Make this gear part of your drivetrain setup checklist: set correct backlash, ensure bearings share radial loads, and inspect teeth after initial runs for uneven contact. This component is designed for RC drivetrain use on Mugen MTX-5 compatible cars.

Fit the gear and use a thin pencil lead or a mesh tool to set the contact pattern, then rotate and recheck under light load to confirm stable engagement.
No, this is an Arrowmax aftermarket component compatible with Mugen MTX-5 gearboxes and not an OEM part from Mugen.
Yes, hardened 7075 aluminium improves wear resistance compared to softer alloys, though very high torque setups may still benefit from steel gears for maximum durability.
