19-tooth replacement 2nd gear for MTX-5

The Arrowmax AM-MTX-T2717 2nd gear is supplied as a 19-tooth replacement compatible with MUGEN MTX-5 gearboxes. Machined from 7075 hard aluminium, it is intended as a precision aftermarket component for scale racing transmissions where consistent tooth form is important.

Functioning as the intermediate spur, correct tooth engagement and steady mesh are crucial for drivetrain efficiency. During installation, confirm pinion alignment, ensure bearings are correctly seated and set backlash to the MTX-5 recommended clearance.

7075 hard aluminium is chosen for its wear resistance in demanding conditions while maintaining machining accuracy for stable gear mesh. Apply light grease to mating faces, inspect for machining flash before fitting, and avoid excessive bearing preload to extend component life.

Compatibility

  • Mugen MTX
  • MTX-5

Will this gear work with aftermarket pinions?

Yes, but whenever you change pinion size or type you should re-check mesh and backlash to ensure correct engagement and to avoid premature wear in the MTX-5 gearbox.

Can I run this gear dry or should I lubricate?

Light gear grease on the tooth faces is recommended; lubrication reduces noise and wear even with 7075 aluminium and helps maintain consistent mesh under load.

What checks should I do after first fitting?

After initial fitting, rotate the gearbox by hand to confirm smooth engagement, then run briefly at low power to verify temperatures, mesh stability and bearing behaviour before full use.
