Fine-Tune Your Drivetrain with Serpent SER120176

The Serpent SER120176 Motor-pinion Aluminium Hard 48P / 38T is engineered to give dependable mesh while keeping weight down. Finished in a hard anodise, the pinion resists surface wear and maintains tooth profile for repeatable performance.

Why Pick an Aluminium Pinion?

Aluminium pinions are prized for lowering rotational inertia, which helps throttle response and acceleration. This 48P 38T unit delivers that lightweight benefit while the hard finish adds a layer of abrasion resistance for regular club use.

Compatibility Notes and Typical Applications

Designed for motors accepting 48 pitch gears, the 38-tooth option provides a versatile ratio for track and street layouts. It suits drivers who want a middle ground between top speed and tractable torque.

How do I check if my motor accepts this pinion?

Measure the motor shaft diameter and check the spline count. If your motor supports 48 pitch pinions and the spline fits, the Serpent SER120176 will mount correctly.

Will anodising affect gear mesh?

The hard anodised coating increases surface hardness with minimal dimensional change, so mesh remains accurate. Always set proper backlash and check mesh under load before extended runs.

Can I use this pinion on off-road cars?

Yes, the 38T count is versatile enough for many off-road setups, offering a practical compromise between acceleration and top speed across varied terrain.
