Boost RC motor efficiency with Serpent SER120173 aluminium pinion

The Serpent SER120173 Motor-pinion is a robust 48 pitch, 35 tooth aluminium gear built for RC racers and hobbyists who need reliable, consistent performance. Its lightweight design promotes smooth power delivery and precise control across a range of applications.

Advantages of an aluminium motor pinion

Aluminium pinions like the Serpent 48P 35T strike a good balance between strength and low mass, helping preserve acceleration and top-end speed without adding excess weight. This material helps reduce rotating mass while keeping good wear resistance for regular use.

Fitment notes and installation pointers

This pinion fits many common motor setups and gives flexibility across different drivetrains. When fitting, check gear mesh carefully so the pinion and spur mesh without binding. Routine inspection and cleaning will help avoid premature wear and keep the gear running true.

Measure your motor shaft diameter and confirm the pinion bore size or use the correct adapter. Also ensure the 48 pitch matches your spur gear for proper engagement.
Set a small clearance between pinion and spur, then tighten the motor mount and recheck mesh. Spin the drivetrain by hand to confirm smooth engagement without tight spots.
Keep teeth free of grit and check alignment regularly. Light cleaning and inspection after running sessions will prevent damage and keep the gear performing.
