Fine Tune Your Motor with TEAMPOWERS 48P Pinion Gear

The TEAMPOWERS TP-PG4818 hard-coated 48P 18T pinion is a straightforward upgrade for racers and club drivers who want longer-lasting teeth and consistent engagement. Its precise tooth form helps maintain smooth power transfer under varied track conditions.

Essential Traits of the 18T Pinion

  • Hard-Coated Finish: A protective surface treatment increases abrasion resistance so the gear stands up to extended use.
  • Precision Engineering: Machined for accurate tooth geometry to reduce friction and improve drivetrain efficiency.
  • Compatibility: Works with many 48P motor-spur pairings when shaft size and mesh are correct, making it a versatile spare part.

Installation Advice

When fitting the TEAMPOWERS 48P Pinion Gear, check the backlash and mesh with the spur to avoid premature wear. Inspect the gear regularly for grit and clean it to preserve performance.

Is the TEAMPOWERS TP-PG4818 suitable for 1/10 scale cars?

Generally yes, the 48P 18T pinion fits many 1/10 models provided the motor pitch and shaft diameter match your setup. Always confirm fit before running.

How can I tell when the pinion needs replacing?

Look for rounded or chipped teeth, excessive backlash, or noisy operation. Regular inspection after runs will show when performance drops.

Can I use this pinion with brushless and brushed motors?

The pinion is agnostic to motor type; ensure the motor shaft and gear pitch match and set the mesh correctly for either brushed or brushless setups.
