Ready to dial in that power band? Your Traxxas rig deserves the perfect gear, and this 18-tooth pinion is ready to deliver!

Alright, gearheads, let's talk brass tacks. The pinion gear is where the rubber meets the road – or rather, where your motor's power meets your drivetrain. It's the first critical link, translating all that raw RPM into forward momentum. Get it right, and your motor runs cooler, your acceleration is snappy, and your top end is exactly where you want it.

This genuine Traxxas 18-tooth 48-pitch pinion is precision-engineered to integrate seamlessly with your compatible Traxxas vehicle. Whether you're fine-tuning for track prowess or just aiming for that sweet spot in your bash session, proper gearing is key to unlocking your RC's full potential.

Why Your Ride Will Thank You For This Pinion:

  • Optimized Performance: The right tooth count means peak efficiency, balancing acceleration and top speed for your specific setup and driving style.
  • Precision 48-Pitch Design: Ensures smooth, quiet operation and excellent mesh with your spur gear, minimizing wear and maximizing power transfer.
  • Durable Traxxas Quality: Engineered to withstand the abuse of high-power brushless systems and hard bashing, giving you reliability when it matters most.
  • Perfect 3mm Motor Shaft Fit: Designed for a snug, secure fit on motors with a 3mm output shaft, ensuring solid engagement and preventing slippage.

Every Traxxas pinion is crafted from hardened steel, built to take a beating without skipping a tooth. This isn't just a piece of metal; it's a critical component machined to exact tolerances. The 48-pitch standard is common in many 1/10 scale vehicles, offering a great balance of durability and fine-tuning capability. Plus, with that 3mm bore, it's ready to slide right onto a wide range of popular RC motors, giving you a solid, wobble-free connection to your drivetrain.
