Cut rotating mass and fine-tune your roll-out with this precision-cut aluminum pinion.
The ProTek RC 29T 48-pitch hard anodized pinion gear delivers exceptional drivetrain efficiency for 1/10 scale on-road and off-road racers. Machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, it sheds critical rotating weight compared to standard steel gears, allowing your motor to spool up quicker out of corners.
A durable hard-anodized coating extends tooth life and reduces friction against composite spur gears, while clear tooth-count engraving makes trackside gearing changes fast and error-free.
Why You'll Love It
- Lightweight Aluminum Construction: Drastically reduces rotational inertia for faster throttle response and punch.

- Precision 48-Pitch Teeth: Runs quiet and meshes smoothly with matching spur gears to keep drivetrain drag to a minimum.
- Laser-Etched Sizing: Tooth count is clearly marked on the barrel so you can grab the right ratio in the pits without counting teeth.

Pro-Tip: Always use a strip of standard notebook paper between the pinion and spur gear when setting gear mesh to ensure the correct backlash, and remember to use blue threadlock on the setscrew into the motor shaft flat.
