13T Hardened Steel Pinion for Wraith

The WR9013TS is a hardened 13T steel motor pinion supplied as one unit for Axial Wraith models. It is intended as a direct-replacement pinion to recover gear integrity or to change the motor-to-spur ratio for different driving characteristics.

Purpose and compatibility: this pinion is suitable when replacing a worn 13-tooth motor gear or when lowering gearing to improve crawl torque. It pairs with standard spur gears without requiring chassis modifications.

Installation instructions: ensure the pinion is correctly seated on the motor shaft and that the set screw engages securely. Adjust the mesh to achieve a minimal but even contact, then run briefly at low throttle and recheck the fit and fasteners.

Tuning notes: altering the tooth count by one or two teeth will change the final ratio; choose based on motor characteristics and typical terrain. Inspect teeth regularly for wear, pitting or burrs and replace the pinion if damage is visible.

Confirm your Axial Wraith uses a 13T motor pinion and check the motor shaft diameter and grub screw position to ensure correct fitment.
Incorrect mesh typically shows as noisy engagement, rapid tooth wear or binding. Reposition the motor plate to restore a consistent slight clearance and retighten the set screw.
Steel pinions are robust but still need regular inspection; clean debris, check for tooth damage after impacts and replace if any deformation is present to protect the spur gear.
