This Yokomo YOKPG6431 pinion is a 31-tooth, 64-pitch component designed as a motor pinion replacement. The ultra-hard surface treatment is applied to resist wear while keeping accurate tooth geometry for dependable engagement with a matching spur gear.
Use only with 64-pitch spur gears and verify tooth count, bore and shaft compatibility before fitting. Avoid forcing parts together; correct seating and alignment help prevent premature wear and gear damage.
Setup recommendations: mount the pinion square to the motor shaft, secure using the original set screw or keyed retainer, and adjust gear mesh using the paper or feeler method to avoid binding or excessive backlash. Recheck the set screw and rotation smoothness after an initial run.
Tuning impact: altering pinion tooth count changes the final drive ratio and motor load. A 31T pinion will shift RPM depending on the spur gear used; make small changes when tuning and monitor motor temperature and drivetrain noise following adjustments.
