The Tamiya 53964 48P Pinion Gear set contains two aluminium pinions, 16T and 17T, enabling clear tuning choices between torque and top speed. It lets drivers adapt the gearing quickly to suit different circuit demands.
These pinions are intended for TRF501X and DB01 chassis but can suit other vehicles that accept the 48P pitch and matching shaft size. They must not be used with 540SH or RS-540 Sport Tuned Motors, so confirm your motor model prior to fitment.
Forged from aluminium with a titanium style finish, these pinions balance durability and low weight. The precision tooth profile reduces noise and helps maintain consistent engagement even under high loads.
Use the 16T when track sections favour acceleration and the 17T for higher top speed on faster layouts. Combining these with Tamiya gear parts like 53965 and 53966 gives you a broader spread of ratios to dial in lap times.
