Consistent Power Flow from Race Opt 48P Spur Gear

The Race Opt 48P Spur Gear 68T POM RO-SG4868 uses POM construction and 68 teeth to provide steady power flow in 48P drive trains. Its geometry and material make it a straightforward choice for many RC platforms.

Why POM Works Well in Spur Gears

Polyoxymethylene offers a balance of stiffness and smooth contact that lowers friction between teeth. That property helps the spur gear run cleaner and can reduce heat buildup under normal use.

Where to Use This 68T Spur Gear

Suitable for touring cars, buggies, and other 48 pitch setups, this 68T spur enables both speed tuning and reliable everyday running. It performs well in both competition and casual environments.

Can I swap this into older 48P gearboxes

In most cases yes, as long as the gearbox accepts standard 48 pitch spurs and the shaft mounting is compatible with the 68T diameter.

Does POM require special lubrication

POM does not need heavy lubrication; a light gear grease on mating surfaces can help reduce noise and wear but avoid over greasing which attracts dirt.

Will this gear change final drive ratio by itself

The tooth count sets the ratio. Swapping for a different tooth count alters final drive, so this 68T will only change ratio if replacing a spur with a different tooth number.
