Track-Ready Serpent 804383 17T Aluminium Pinion

The Serpent 804383 Centax-3 gear-pinion is a straightforward upgrade for racers wanting reliable drivetrain behaviour. Constructed from aluminium, the 17-tooth pinion keeps weight down while offering a durable meshing surface for consistent runs.

Why aluminium works well here

Aluminium combines lightness with sufficient strength for race use, reducing unsprung and rotating mass. That helps maintain nimble handling and predictable throttle response when you push the car in traffic or through sweepers.

Suited to drivers tuning for pace

This pinion is aimed at competitors and hobbyists who fine-tune gear ratios. The Serpent 804383 integrates with Centax-3 layouts and is easy to swap when testing different final drive setups.

How do I check fitment before buying?

Compare the pinion tooth count, shaft diameter and spline type with your current Centax-3 pinion to ensure compatibility.

Any break-in tips for a new pinion?

Run a few low-speed laps to settle the mesh, then inspect tooth contact and re-tighten set screws after the initial run-in.

Should I pair this with a specific spur gear?

Choose a spur that achieves your desired ratio for track conditions; the 17T pinion works with a wide range of spur sizes for tuning top speed versus acceleration.
