Precision Pinion Matched to Centax-3 WC

The Serpent 803235 pinion is crafted to integrate with the Centax-3 WC clutch system, providing a reliable 18-tooth option for 1/8 scale models. Its precise machining helps deliver steady gear engagement and improved drivetrain balance during aggressive driving.

Optimised for Torque Transfer and Reliability

The 18T layout of this Serpent pinion aids in consistent torque delivery and reduced slop between gear teeth. Its compatibility with Centax-3 WC setups makes it a straightforward swap for hobbyists tuning gear ratios or replacing worn parts.

Robust Construction for Heavy Use

Built from durable materials to resist wear, the Serpent 803235 pinion is suitable for repeat track sessions and demanding runs. It provides a sensible mix of longevity and performance for routine upgrades or repairs.

Can I change final drive by swapping to this 18T pinion?

Yes, moving to the Serpent 803235 18T will alter final drive depending on your spur gear. Adjusting the pinion is a common way to fine tune acceleration versus top speed.

Is special tooling required to fit the pinion?

No special tools are required beyond standard hobby tools. A small allen key for the grub screw and a feeler or a tooth gauge for mesh setup are usually sufficient.

Will this pinion reduce drivetrain noise?

Properly meshed, the Serpent 803235 can help lower gear noise by producing a cleaner contact pattern, though overall noise also depends on spur gear condition and bearing health.
