Improve Serpent 988E Drive with the 57T Spur

The Serpent SER904179 57T spurgear is intended to enhance the drivetrain of the Serpent 988E by providing reliable tooth engagement. It is produced to match the 988E gear layout so you can expect steady power transfer under load.

Advantages for Setup and Tuning

The 57T option allows for accurate ratio stepping and helps keep drivetrain behaviour predictable while experimenting with different pinions or motor setups. It is suitable for hobby racers seeking controllable acceleration.

Installation Guidance and Care

Fit the 57T spurgear with attention to mesh and pinion alignment. After fitting, run a short break-in and check for smooth operation. Regular checks and cleaning will keep performance consistent.

Will changing to 57T alter top speed much?

Switching spur size affects final ratio with the chosen pinion; expect modest changes in top speed depending on the pinion you select.

Are spare spurs sold individually?

Many suppliers stock individual spurgears; check with your retailer for availability of the Serpent SER904179 57T unit.

How do I check gear backlash correctly?

Set mesh with motor mounted, then measure lateral play by gently pushing the spur and pinion; aim for minimal play without binding.

Can I pair this spur with high torque motors?

Yes, but monitor heat and tooth wear more closely with high torque setups and maintain proper mesh to avoid premature damage.
