This 16‑tooth 32 pitch pinion gear is a hardened steel, short‑face design engineered for precise engagement in RC drivetrains that use 32 DP spur gears. The reduced face width allows proper gear mesh in space‑limited motor compartments while minimizing interference with motor housing or chassis parts. Machined from heat‑treated steel, the gear teeth resist wear and fatigue in high‑load conditions better than softer stock pinions. It has a 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) bore sized to slip directly onto common motor shafts, and a set screw secures it in place to maintain consistent mesh under acceleration and torque. The accurate tooth profile ensures smooth power transfer and reduced drivetrain noise or backlash. This pinion is useful for dialing in final drive ratios to favor acceleration, torque, or top‑end speed depending on vehicle setup and terrain.
