FAQ

Precision machined 23T steel pinion from Serpent

The Serpent 23T Steel Pinion Gear, model number 804518, provides accurate tooth profiles and resilient steel construction for M1.3 gear trains. It is aimed at modelers who want steady gear performance and reduced wear over time.

Features and fitment notes for the 23T pinion

Material: Hardened steel to resist wear in demanding use
Tooth Count: 23T giving a sensible compromise between torque and top end speed
Compatibility: Built for M1.3 pitch systems to suit many common models
Application: Appropriate for race prep, maintenance swaps, and durability upgrades

How do I check the pinion meshes correctly with my spur?

Use a gear mesh gauge or the paper method to set a small clearance, then tighten the pinion mounting and recheck after a short run to ensure it stays stable.

Will the Serpent 804518 help reduce gear noise?

Improved tooth accuracy and correct mesh can lower backlash and noise, though final results depend on spur condition and alignment too.

Are there recommended lubricants for steel pinions?

A light gear-safe lubricant on the mating surfaces can help reduce wear; avoid heavy greases that attract grit and increase drag.

What signs indicate the pinion needs replacement?

Look for rounded tooth faces, chips, or uneven wear patterns. Any of these signs mean you should fit a new pinion to protect the spur and motor.
