Tamiya 15380 - HG 8T Pinion Gear Set Overview

The Tamiya 15380 HG 8T Plastic Pinion Gear Set supplies eight identical plastic pinions made for Mini 4WD models. These parts are a practical option for racers and hobbyists who need straightforward replacements to keep a car running smoothly between events.

Designed for easy installation, the HG 8T pinions deliver consistent power transfer from the motor to the drivetrain. Keep a set on hand as spares to reduce downtime and preserve race performance through quick, reliable swaps.

Will these fit my Mini 4WD chassis?

Yes, the HG 8T pinions in the Tamiya 15380 set are made to match standard Mini 4WD motor shafts and are compatible with typical stock gear setups.

How do I check gear mesh after installing these pinions?

Install the pinion, fit the spur gear, then rotate by hand to ensure smooth engagement with minimal play. Adjust the motor mount or shims if you notice binding or excessive clearance.

How can I tell when a plastic pinion needs replacing?

Look for rounded or chipped teeth, increased noise, or slipping under load. Any of these signs mean it is time to swap to a fresh pinion from the pack.

Are these compatible with upgraded motors and higher RPMs?

They work with common upgrade motors, but plastic pinions wear faster at very high RPM or torque. For heavy duty use consider checking them frequently or pairing with reinforced options.
