Upgrade Pinion Options for Your RC Car

The Tamiya 53407 Aluminium Pinion Gear Set provides two nearby gear ratios so you can tune vehicle behaviour. Including 38T and 39T pinions, the set is handy for quick experimentation between acceleration and top speed. Aluminium construction reduces rotating weight while keeping reliable tooth engagement.

Main Features to Note

  • Material: Aluminium construction for a low mass pinion that still resists the demands of high-speed use.
  • Compatibility: Fits many Tamiya models such as TA04 and TB-01 and any model that accepts 0.4 M pitch gears.
  • Pitch: 0.4 M (48P metric) pitch for correct engagement with suitably matched spur gears.

Fitting Hints for Best Results

Ensure the motor is firmly mounted before fitting the pinion. Secure the pinion with the supplied grub screws and the provided allen key, then set the mesh with a small gap to avoid binding. Periodic checks of screw tightness and mesh will help prevent damage.

They fit standard motor shaft sizes common to Tamiya applications; confirm your motor shaft diameter before fitting to ensure compatibility.
A light gear-friendly lubricant on the spur gear can reduce wear, but avoid heavy grease that can attract dirt and grit.
Anodising aluminium is possible, but check that any surface treatment does not affect tolerances or the fit of the grub screws before proceeding.
