Reliable 18T centre pulley for better drivetrain control

The Tamiya 53989 Center Pulley offers a reliable 18T option to improve driveline behaviour. Its tooth profile helps deliver smooth torque transfer so steering and throttle feel more predictable. It fits many Tamiya chassis and is handy for both upgrade projects and regular maintenance.

Made to keep gear mesh tight

With accurate manufacturing, the Tamiya 18T pulley reduces play between gears and limits unnecessary wear. That close mesh helps keep noise down and improves component lifespan during demanding runs.

Why fit this pulley?

Compatibility: Intended to suit a broad range of Tamiya models.
Durability: Engineered for repeated use and durability.
Performance: Contributes to smoother power transfer and steadier handling.

Will this improve steering feel?

Improved gear engagement can reduce drivetrain lash, which often translates to crisper steering feedback, especially on power application.

Is the 18T suitable for off-road use?

Yes, it is suitable for off-road vehicles provided you check for debris and service the drivetrain regularly to avoid accelerated wear.

Can I upgrade other drivetrain parts alongside this pulley?

Consider matching bearings, a quality spur and appropriate pinion to maximise the benefits of a new centre pulley.
