Precision gearing for tuning and track use

The Serpent SER120123 is a solid option for pilots who fine tune gearing for different track layouts. Produced from hardened aluminium, this 64-pitch, 36-tooth pinion offers a lightweight solution that still stands up to regular running and adjustments.

Why aluminium works well in pinions

Aluminium pinions like the Serpent SER120123 reduce rotating mass while offering respectable durability after hardening. Their low weight makes them responsive to acceleration changes, and they are a popular choice when frequent gear swaps are needed to dial in performance.

Where this pinion fits best

The 64P 36T size suits a broad range of RC models and is useful for riders who tweak gear ratios between events. It provides a practical range for both speed-focused and torque-focused setups without adding unnecessary bulk to the drivetrain.

Can I use the Serpent SER120123 on different track surfaces?

Yes. Its aluminium build keeps weight down for quick response, making it suitable for both smooth circuits and looser surfaces when paired with the right gear ratio.

Does the pinion require special installation tools?

No special tools are required beyond standard hex drivers and a feeler gauge to set correct mesh. Ensure the grub screw is tightened to the motor shaft specification.

Is aluminium quieter than steel pinions?

Aluminium can produce slightly different noise characteristics than steel, but correct mesh and alignment are the main factors that influence gear noise.

How often should I inspect the pinion during club use?

Check the pinion after any heavy impact and perform routine inspections every few meetings to spot wear or damage early.
