Track-Proven Precision: Serpent 17T Pinion

The Serpent 600457 Pinion 17T is engineered for smooth power delivery and long service life. Precision-cut teeth help maintain consistent meshing and efficient transfer of torque for racers and dedicated hobbyists.

Balanced Speed and Acceleration

Picking the right pinion affects both acceleration and top speed; the 17T strikes a practical balance so you get strong punch out of corners while keeping controllable top end. The robust build helps it handle repeated race use without premature wear.

Compatibility and Simple Fitment

This pinion fits a wide range of common RC car drivetrains and installs using standard pinion retainers. Check pinion-to-spur mesh carefully and adjust spacing to avoid noise and extend gear life.

The 17T size pairs with many standard spur gear tooth counts but you should match the module or pitch. Confirm your spur gear specification before fitting to ensure correct mesh and ratio.
Set mesh by loosening the pinion, placing a thin shim between pinion and spur, then tightening and rotating to seat the gears. Final fine tuning with feeler gauges or a pencil method will reduce noise and wear.
The 17T is versatile and suits both onroad and many offroad setups when you need a compromise between torque and top speed. Choose based on your driving style and track layout.
Keep the gears clean of grit, check mesh regularly, and inspect for chipped teeth after impacts. Proper lubrication on spur faces and avoiding heavy shocks will extend service life.
