Tamiya 70260 Universal Gearbox 2 - Project-Ready Clear Gearbox

The Tamiya 70260 Universal Gearbox 2 provides a hands-on way to study gear interaction while building practical projects. The assembly-style gearbox uses clear ABS so you can see gear engagement, making it great for learning about speed, torque, and mechanical advantage.

Features and Operation

This gearbox is fitted with two output options - a 3mm hex shaft and a 2mm shaft - allowing independent outputs for diverse uses. Detachable mounting positions give you freedom to install the unit on any side to change output orientation. The integrated clutch reduces stress on gears if the load increases suddenly.

Applications and Compatibility

Compatible with a wide selection of Tamiya construction and robotics kits, the Tamiya 70260 is a practical component for prototyping and hobby work. The transparent case aids inspection and makes it straightforward to find and correct gear issues.

The clutch is designed to reduce damage from temporary overloads, but continuous heavy loads are not recommended. Use appropriate reduction or stronger gearing for sustained high torque.
Replacement parts can often be sourced through Tamiya parts suppliers or hobby outlets. Inspect the gearbox to identify the exact gear before ordering a replacement.
Keep drive shafts straight and avoid lateral loading on the outputs. Use bearings or supports where possible to reduce shaft flex and extend gear life.
