Kyosho PNGS1017 17T Pinion for Precise Drive Control

The Kyosho PNGS1017 Steel Pinion Gear is a compact, robust choice for 1/8 scale brushless models. The 17-tooth layout and 5mm shaft ensure a snug, repeatable installation.

Durability for Track and Club Racing

Built from hardwearing steel, the Kyosho PNGS1017 reduces tooth deformation and delivers longer service life under frequent competitive use. It helps maintain consistent power transfer across runs.

Installation and Compatibility Details

Intended for 1/8 scale brushless motors, this pinion must not be used with Vortex8 of the VE series. It is useful for drivers seeking reliable gearing adjustments to suit different track conditions.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Does the PNGS1017 require shimming for correct mesh?

Yes, fine shimming or using a paper method will help establish correct mesh. Check for a small amount of side play and ensure the gears rotate freely without binding.

Is steel better than aluminium for pinions?

Steel generally outlasts aluminium under heavy loads thanks to superior wear resistance. The Kyosho PNGS1017 offers that durability, though it may add slight weight compared with aluminium options.

What should I do if teeth start to chip?

If you notice chipped or bent teeth, replace the pinion immediately to avoid further damage to the spur or motor. Investigate root causes like poor mesh or debris ingress and correct them before refitting.
