TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx 14T Steel Motor Pinion TXM014TS by GPM  [TXM014TS]

14T steel pinion for X-Maxx drivetrains

This 14-tooth steel motor gear is made for TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx drivetrains and sold as TXM014TS. It is supplied as a single piece and intended to replace or tune the motor-side pinion for gear ratio adjustments.

Installation notes: confirm your motor shaft diameter and locking method before fitting, slide the gear onto the motor shaft and align the tooth mesh with the spur gear, then secure the pinion using the motor's existing locking method. Check mesh with the vehicle static and recheck after a short test run to ensure there is no binding.

Tuning role: swapping to a 14T pinion alters the effective gear ratio toward higher theoretical top speed with reduced initial acceleration compared to larger-tooth pinions. Use this advice when aiming for a modest top-end gain and monitor motor load and ESC temperature during initial runs.

Material and durability: manufactured in steel for increased wear resistance versus plated brass, this pinion should be treated as a wearable drivetrain component; inspect teeth regularly for deformation or excessive wear after heavy off-road use.
