The 212022 is engineered to withstand the high-torque demands of both brushed and brushless mini-motors. The 18T configuration is often considered a "performance" gearing choice, offering a significant increase in top-end velocity over smaller stock pinions while maintaining enough torque for punchy corner exits on carpet or high-grip dirt.
Detailed Technical Specifications
1. 0.5 Modulus Precision Gearing
-
Smooth Engagement: The 0.5M pitch is the factory standard for Losi’s 1/18 lineup, providing a finer, quieter mesh than 48P gears, which is essential for the compact gearbox of a mini-racer.
-
Reduced Friction: CNC-machined tooth profiles minimize rolling resistance, ensuring more of your battery’s power reaches the ground instead of being lost as heat.
2. 2mm Precision Bore
-
Universal Mini-Motor Fit: Designed to fit perfectly on the 2mm output shafts found on Spektrum Firma brushless motors, Dynamite brushed motors, and most aftermarket 280/370-sized motors.
-
Secure Locking: Includes a high-quality set screw (grub screw) that sits deep in the gear hub to prevent the pinion from sliding or spinning on the motor shaft during hard braking.
3. High-Strength Steel Construction
-
Brushless Ready: Unlike soft aluminum pinions that can "strip" under the instant torque of a LiPo battery, this steel gear is built to handle the aggression of modern brushless power systems.
-
Wear Resistance: The hardened surface resists the "hooking" of teeth over time, ensuring a consistent gear mesh and a longer life for your matching spur gear.
