The Serpent 802517 Centax 3-Gear Aluminium Pinion 17T brings a lightweight, hardwearing 17-tooth option to the 720-09 200mm GP chassis. Made from quality aluminium, the pinion aims to deliver consistent power flow while keeping weight down in the drivetrain. This makes it useful for drivers focused on lap-to-lap consistency and predictable handling.
Using aluminium lowers the rotating inertia of the pinion, helping the car respond faster to throttle changes. The 17-tooth choice balances torque and pace, giving a usable spread for a variety of track layouts. Installation is straightforward when the bore matches the chassis shaft.
For those who put in plenty of track time, the aluminium pinion offers decent resistance to wear and improved heat transfer versus some softer materials. Regular cleaning and inspection keep performance steady, and it fits neatly into maintenance routines between meetings.
