Fit a Serpent 9648 48t first gear to refresh your Serpent 960 drivetrain

The Serpent 9648 Gear 48t (1st) is a precision first gear crafted for the vintage Serpent 960 line. It is produced to tight tolerances so gear teeth engage cleanly, helping to cut down on backlash and noise. Durable by design, this 48-tooth gear is a practical option for both track use and casual driving.

Durable construction for long service life

Made with longevity in mind, the Serpent 48t offers strong resistance to wear and deformation under load. Its accurate dimensions allow it to integrate with Serpent 960 gearbox parts without extensive modification. This makes it a sensible component for restoration and ongoing maintenance work.

Helps protect surrounding drivetrain parts

Using a correctly machined first gear reduces stress on bearings and pinions, helping to prevent premature failures. The Serpent 48t supports steady power transfer and can simplify tuning sessions by removing drivetrain inconsistencies.

Do I need special tools to fit the Serpent 9648?

Basic RC tools are sufficient for most installs: hex drivers, a pinion puller if required, and shims for setting mesh. No specialised equipment is typically needed.

Will this gear work with worn pinions?

Pairing with a badly worn pinion will not provide ideal mesh. Inspect and replace pinions showing significant wear to get the best life from the Serpent 9648.

How often should I check the gear after installation?

Check gear mesh and tooth condition after the first few runs and then as part of routine servicing intervals or if you notice unusual noise or vibration.

Is lubrication needed on the gear faces?

Light grease on gear faces can reduce wear and noise, but avoid over-lubrication which can attract dirt and debris.
