48-Pitch 83T Spur Gear - Yokomo YOKSG4883  [YOKSG4883]

Product details for 48 pitch applications

This spur gear is manufactured for RC-scale 48 pitch gear trains and serves as a replacement part for conventional 48-pitch drivetrains. It belongs inside model gearboxes and drivetrain assemblies and is used when modifying gear ratios or replacing worn spur gears in electric or nitro models.

During installation, verify the motor pinion matches the 48 pitch standard to prevent incorrect tooth engagement. Correct mesh is essential: set a nominal backlash, manually rotate the drivetrain to check engagement, then secure components. Avoid forcing the gear into position and perform a follow-up check after initial runs as components can settle.

Changing the number of spur teeth adjusts the overall gear ratio, which alters acceleration and top-end behaviour. Treat this part as a ratio adjustment tool and reassess motor and ESC settings after any change to achieve the desired drive characteristics.
