Accurate 17T Pinion from Yokomo

The Yokomo PG-4817A is a hard coated aluminium pinion produced for precision and durability in RC drive trains. Its 17-tooth count and 48-pitch profile make it compatible with standard 48-pitch spur gears for consistent engagement and dependable performance.

Hard Coating Benefits Explained

Aluminium pinions are chosen for their low mass and satisfactory strength, and the hard coat on the PG-4817A raises surface wear resistance while cutting friction. That combination helps maintain smooth running and extends service life under regular use.

Compatibility Notes and Use Cases

This pinion fits models that use 48-pitch gearing, suitable for club racers and hobbyists alike. Use the PG-4817A when you need precise tooth spacing for tuning gear ratios or improving drivetrain efficiency.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo 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.

Will this pinion work with my existing 48-pitch spur?

Yes. The PG-4817A conforms to the 48-pitch standard and will mesh with any 48-pitch spur provided you set correct pinion depth and backlash.

Is the PG-4817A suited to competitive use?

The hard coated finish improves wear resistance so it is appropriate for regular competitive runs, though proper setup and routine inspection remain important.

How does changing to a 17T pinion affect handling?

Switching to a 17-tooth pinion alters the final drive ratio, which can influence acceleration and top speed depending on the rest of your gearing. Test different combinations to find the best balance.
