FAQ

Precision pinion for refined drivetrain performance

The Tamiya 42261 TRF 04 Hard Coat Aluminum Pinion Gear 31T provides a lightweight, hard-coated option for those tuning gear ratios. Its aluminium construction reduces rotating mass while the hard coat protects the tooth surfaces during everyday use.

Performance and fit

Produced under the Tamiya Racing Factory range, this pinion features a hard-coated finish to lower friction and help resist wear. It is designed for use with 04 Module gears found on many Tamiya kits, allowing easy compatibility across models.

Notable points

Lightweight aluminium to help improve acceleration response
Hard coat treatment for enhanced surface durability
31 tooth count to suit common gearing setups
Supplied with a 3mm grub screw for secure fitting

Is this pinion suitable for circuit racing?

Yes, its lighter weight and hard-coated surface make it a practical choice for circuit use, where reduced rotational mass and consistent mesh help lap-to-lap performance.

How often should I check the gear mesh?

Check gear mesh during initial setup and after the first few runs. Recheck periodically, especially after impacts or when you notice unusual noise or vibration.

Can I reuse this pinion if teeth are slightly worn?

Minor wear is often acceptable for casual use, but replace the pinion if tooth profiles are visibly deformed or if performance and mesh quality degrade noticeably.
