Tamiya 70240 - 36T/12T Gear Set Introduction

The Tamiya 70240 gear set provides a compact selection of gears useful for model making, prototyping and classroom use. These components are produced for consistent tooth engagement and easy incorporation into small gearboxes.

Contents and Component Notes

Based on parts from the Tamiya Single Gearbox (4-Speed), the set contains:

Three 36T/12T gear assemblies
Two 34T/12T crown gears
One 36T final drive gear
Additional bushings, shafts and small fittings for assembly

Gears are specified at a 0.5 module, suitable for many miniature mechanical applications.

Use Cases and Integration Tips

Ideal for conversions, repairs and educational projects, the Tamiya 70240 parts can be used as replacements or integrated into bespoke gear systems. Their compatibility with a range of Tamiya construction kits makes them a flexible choice for modders.

Which projects benefit most from these gears?

These gears are ideal for small-scale drive trains, educational builds and retrofitting older kits where a 0.5 module gear set is needed for predictable gearing.

Do I need to modify shafts to use these gears?

Most often the included shafts and bushings will work, but some projects require minor trimming or new shafts to match specific chassis layouts. Test fit before final assembly.

Are replacement parts available for individual pieces?

Individual replacement parts depend on supplier stock. For common wear items like bushings and shafts, check parts lists or authorised dealers for single-item availability.
