This 48 pitch, 27-tooth precision pinion is intended for RC motor drives that require tight tooth tolerances and consistent engagement. The ultra-hard finish helps the gear maintain its profile in typical 1/10 on-road and touring configurations using 48 pitch parts.
Fitment checklist: confirm that your spur gear is 48 pitch and measure motor shaft diameter and keying before installing. For best results, set mesh with a thin feeler between teeth, rotate the drivetrain to seat the gear, and then secure the pinion while holding the mesh. After first runs, inspect for play and re-torque if necessary.
Practical advice: switching pinion sizes changes the vehicle's acceleration and top speed characteristics. Make single-step changes and monitor lap times and motor temperatures to find the optimal combination for your setup.
