Precision Pinion for Competitive XRAY RX8 Builds

Competitive builders aiming to refine XRAY RX8 drivetrains can fit the Arrowmax AM-RX8-348517 17T pinion for improved balance between acceleration and top speed. Produced from 7075-T6 aluminium, the pinion keeps weight low without sacrificing strength. A durable hard-coating helps maintain a stable contact pattern during prolonged use.

Tuning Range and Driveability

The Arrowmax pinion is profiled to work with XRAY RX8 spur gears, promoting smooth torque transfer and reduced drivetrain lash. Available sizes from 16T to 21T allow fine tuning of gearing to suit different circuit demands and motor setups.

Will this pinion alter gear ratio behaviour significantly?

Small changes in tooth count can have noticeable effects on acceleration and top speed. Use one-step changes and record lap times to dial in the right ratio.

How do I protect threads and set screws during installation?

Use the correct size set screw and avoid over tightening. Apply a small amount of thread locker if you need a secure fit for racing conditions.

Is a replacement pinion better than reworking a damaged one?

Minor burrs can be dressed out, but if tooth geometry is altered or coating is compromised, fitting a new Arrowmax AM-RX8-348517 or equivalent pinion is recommended.
