Lightweight 15T pulley upgrade for the TA03

The Tamiya 53291 - TA03 aluminium pulley is a lightweight replacement for the TA03 chassis that uses a 15-tooth profile to sharpen drivetrain response. It is precision cut to ensure reliable engagement and reduce drivetrain losses on the track.

What the aluminium pulley brings to your setup

Aluminium reduces rotating mass while holding its form under load, which helps maintain consistent gear contact and lower wear rates. The precision finish also minimises the chance of uneven wear that can arise with lower tolerance parts.

Installation pointers and upkeep

Install the Tamiya 53291 - TA03 pulley with care to maintain concentricity and correct mesh. Carry out periodic inspections after aggressive sessions and replace the pulley if tooth damage or excessive play appears.

The pulley tooth count stays at 15T, so the nominal ratio is unchanged. However the improved fit and reduced slip can make power delivery feel sharper.
Most installs will not require additional balancing. Ensure the pulley runs true on the shaft and check for wobble; if you detect runout, investigate mounting or shaft condition.
Light polishing of contact surfaces can help, but avoid removing significant material. Keep tooth profiles intact and only perform minor surface work if you know the effect on mesh and fit.
