Engineered pinion for high-speed 966-E setups

The Serpent 17T Pinion Gear offers a tight, accurate mesh for the 966-E chassis to keep power transfer efficient under demanding conditions. Its robust construction supports repeated high-rpm use and helps maintain consistent lap times when you are pushing pace. Ideal for racers who alter gear ratios to suit different circuits.

Essential features of the 17T Serpent pinion

Compatibility: Built specifically for the 966-E chassis geometry.
Durability: Strong construction made to resist wear from aggressive running.
Precision Fit: Fine machining ensures correct gear engagement and minimal backlash.
Performance Boost: Improves throttle response and can raise achievable top speed with the right spur pairing.

Is the Serpent 904101 pinion suitable with brushless setups?

Yes, it is compatible with brushless motors, but you should check motor load and adjust the ratio if temps climb after fitting.

Do I need to shim the gear after installation?

After installing, verify pinion-spur mesh and add thin shims if necessary to achieve correct backlash and quiet operation.

Should I lubricate the pinion?

A light application of gear-safe grease on the spur gear can help reduce wear, but avoid heavy greases that attract dirt to the mesh.
