Refine your power delivery with Tamiya pinion gears

The Tamiya 53405 Aluminum Pinion Gear set is a practical upgrade for club racers and weekend tuners. Supplied with 34T and 35T aluminium pinions, this set helps you experiment with ratios to suit different layouts.

Pitch accuracy and motor compatibility

Made to a 0.4M (48P) metric pitch, these pinions are intended to mesh accurately with matching spur gears and mount securely on compatible motor shafts. The aluminium construction balances lightness and sufficient rigidity for regular use.

Included items

One 34 tooth pinion gear
One 35 tooth pinion gear
Three grub screws for secure fixing
An allen wrench for simple installation

The set is designed for quick swaps, so you can trial different pinions between practice runs.

Are these pinions suitable for vintage and modern models?

They suit models that use the 0.4M pitch standard. For older kits, confirm the motor shaft and spur gear pitch before fitting.

How do I choose between 34T and 35T for a tight circuit?

On tight tracks a smaller pinion often improves acceleration and response. Try the 34T first, then switch to 35T if you need more top speed on faster sections.

What maintenance should I perform on these pinions?

Regularly remove debris, inspect tooth profiles for wear, ensure grub screws remain tight, and replace pinions showing fatigue or tooth rounding.
