The 010-0065-36 is built to withstand the brutal instantaneous torque of 8S to 12S LiPo power systems. With a 40-tooth profile, this pinion provides a very tall gear ratio, making it the primary choice for "Speed Run" builds in vehicles like the Arrma Limitless, Infraction, or Traxxas X-Maxx where explosive top speed is the goal.
Detailed Technical Specifications
1. Hardened Steel Construction
-
Extreme Durability: Precision-machined from high-strength steel and hardened to resist the "peening" and wear caused by high-RPM brushless motors.
-
Long Service Life: The hardened surface ensures the gear teeth maintain their profile even when subjected to the grit and debris of off-road or parking-lot racing.
2. 8mm Precision Bore
-
Large-Scale Standard: Designed specifically for the 8mm shafts found on "Big Block" motors. The bore is machined to tight tolerances to ensure a perfectly concentric fit, minimizing vibration at high speeds.
-
Dual Set-Screw Design: (Where applicable) Features deep-threaded holes for M4 or M5 set screws to ensure the pinion stays locked to the motor shaft during hard braking and rapid acceleration.
3. Mod 1.0 Pitch Geometry
-
Standard Heavy-Duty Gearing: Mod 1 is the industry standard for 1/8 scale and larger vehicles due to its large, deep teeth that can handle significant power without stripping.
-
High-Efficiency Profile: The tooth geometry is optimized for smooth engagement with the spur gear, reducing friction and heat buildup during high-speed passes.
