Reliable Pinion for TA-04 Models

The Tamiya 49233 - 0.4 Aluminum Pinion Gear is aimed at modellers tuning their TA-04 chassis. The hard-coated aluminium construction helps resist wear and maintain consistent tooth form for reliable engagement.

Notable Points

Solid Material: Hard-coated aluminium gives a balance of strength and lightness suited to frequent running.
Marked Tooth Count: The gear carries a clear stamp of its tooth count so you can confirm 39T quickly during setup.
Intended Use: Manufactured for TA-04 and compatible Tamiya GP fixed ratio applications.

Fitting Advice

Supplied with two set screws, the pinion secures to the motor shaft when installed correctly. Check gear mesh and torque the screws evenly, then inspect after a few outings to ensure the fit remains secure.

Can I swap this pinion between motors?

You can swap the pinion between motors provided the shaft diameter and 0.4 module match. Make sure the set screws seat on a clean section of shaft to avoid slippage.

What should I watch for in wear?

Inspect teeth for rounding or pitting and check for movement on the shaft. Replace the pinion if teeth show significant wear to protect the spur gear.

Is special lubrication needed?

Light lubrication of the spur gear with a suitable gear grease is fine, but avoid heavy greases on pinion teeth that can attract debris. Keep the pinion clean for longest service life.
