Precision machined Serpent 804381 15T pinion for Centax-3 systems

This Serpent 804381 Aluminum 15T Gear Pinion is made for RC enthusiasts who need accurate tooth geometry and durable materials. Specifically matched to Centax-3 installations, it gives 1/10 scale cars a dependable, lightweight option for drivetrain upgrades.

Why aluminium works well in pinions

Aluminium offers a strong yet light solution that reduces inertia on the motor shaft, helping the vehicle pick up speed more responsively. Its surface hardness and finish also improve resistance to common track wear.

Fine tuning and installation tips

As a 15T pinion made for Centax-3, this gear is suitable for small, precise gearing adjustments. Ensure correct mesh and verify pinion seating on the motor shaft for smooth power delivery across varied track conditions.

Measure your motor shaft diameter and compare the pinion bore. The Serpent 804381 is produced to match Centax-3 standards, but a quick check avoids fit issues.
Noise level depends on mesh and finish rather than material alone. A well-set aluminium pinion with proper lubrication can be as quiet as a steel one while being lighter.
Pairing the 15T with a smaller spur reduces final ratio for better acceleration, while a larger spur favours top speed. Try incremental spur changes and note lap times to dial in the best balance.
