Precision gearing from Tamiya for better drivetrain feel

Enthusiasts seeking tighter throttle control can fit the Tamiya 42262 - TRF 04 Hard Coat Aluminum Pinion Gear (32T) as a targeted upgrade. Its accurate tooth profile and light construction support cleaner power delivery on technical layouts.

Coated finish for extended service

The TRF applied hard coat enhances surface durability while helping to reduce friction losses. This keeps the drivetrain running smoothly during consecutive heats or long practice sessions.

Suitable for models using 04 Module gears

This pinion is intended for use with 04 Module Tamiya gear systems, allowing tuners to alter gearing ratios without modifying motor mounts or spur gear arrangements.

Can this pinion help reduce drivetrain strain?

The lower friction and precise machining can reduce parasitic losses, which may ease load on the motor and gearbox compared with worn or crude pinions.

Will using this change my gearing calculations?

The tooth count remains the same, so overall ratio is unchanged; improvements are in efficiency and reduced friction rather than numeric gearing.

Any tips for avoiding premature wear?

Keep mesh correct, avoid contaminated oils, and inspect after abrasive conditions. Swap the pinion if edges show burrs to protect the mating spur.

Is re-torquing recommended after initial runs?

Yes, recheck fasteners and mesh after the first few runs as parts settle in; this prevents loosening and potential gear damage.
