Precision pinions by Tamiya for controlled gearing

The Tamiya 53965 pinion set gives model drivers a reliable way to refine drivetrain ratios on TRF501X and DB01 cars. Including 18T and 19T 48P gears, the set makes swapping ratios straightforward for different circuit conditions. The titanium aluminium construction aims to combine strength with reduced spinning weight.

How these pinions affect handling

Using the Tamiya 53965 set can lower rotational inertia and help response when accelerating out of turns. The pair is useful when testing multiple gearing setups and works well alongside other Tamiya pinions to expand tuning options.

Compatibility reminders and setup checks

These pinions are specifically made for the TRF501X and DB01 chassis and should mesh properly with matching spurs. They are not compatible with the 540SH & RS-540 Sport Tuned Motor. Always verify mesh and secure the pinion in place to prevent slippage or premature wear.

Moving between 18T and 19T alters the overall ratio and can affect top speed versus acceleration; choose based on track layout and motor characteristics.
Basic hex keys and a pinion holding tool make installation easier, but careful hand tightening and mesh checking are the key steps.
Inspect after intense sessions or if you hear unusual noise; check for burrs, uneven wear, and secure set screws to maintain drivetrain health.
