Reliable Pinion for Electric RC Models

The Arrowmax AM-348017 pinion is tailored for modders and racers who want dependable gear engagement. Its 7075 hard aluminum construction keeps weight down while giving a robust tooth profile for regular use.

Performance Notes on the 48P 17T

The 48-pitch, 17-tooth configuration is common across many electric car platforms. It provides a sensible balance for track and club driving where controlled acceleration and smooth top-end are preferred.

Material Benefits

Using 7075 hard aluminum ensures the pinion resists bending and maintains dimensional stability under load. That translates to fewer mesh adjustments between runs.

Basic Fitting Hints

Align the pinion to the spur gear with a consistent gap and torque the grub screw to recommended settings. Clean and inspect the gear teeth regularly, especially after off-road or dusty sessions.

Some packages include only the pinion; check the product listing for included hardware. If a grub screw is not supplied, use a suitable M3 or compatible screw for your motor shaft.
7075 hard aluminum holds up well under increased torque, but for very high-power applications consider monitoring wear more frequently or using hardened steel alternatives where needed.
Use a thin paper or feeler method to set an even contact pattern, then secure the pinion and rotate the motor to check for smooth engagement across the gear face.
