Upgrade Gear Ratios with the Tamiya 50354 AV Pinions

The Tamiya 50354 AV Pinion Gear Set supplies two pinion sizes, 16T and 17T, to help modelers refine drive characteristics. They are straightforward to install and offer dependable service across a selection of Tamiya models when set up correctly.

Application and Model Compatibility

These pinions let you tune for quicker acceleration or higher top speed depending on the course. They are compatible with many Tamiya kits, but confirming compatibility with your chassis is recommended before fitting.

Installation Notes and Care Routine

Align the pinion and spur carefully during installation to avoid poor mesh and excess wear. Regular inspections and cleaning will maintain smooth operation and extend the lifespan of the gears.

Will these pinions change my gearing significantly?

Switching between 16T and 17T alters the gear ratio enough to notice a change in acceleration and top speed. The effect depends on your spur gear and motor combo.

Are replacement pinions easy to carry as spares?

Yes, these pinions are small and ideal as spare parts in a pit bag. Carrying a couple of sizes lets you quickly change setup for practice or race conditions.

What signs indicate a pinion needs replacing?

Look for rounded or chipped teeth, excessive backlash, or noisy operation. If any of these appear, replace the pinion to protect the rest of the drivetrain.
