Improve Gear Life with the Tamiya 42229 Pinion

The Tamiya 42229 is a 30T pinion fabricated from hard-coated aluminium to give racers a tougher alternative to plain metal gears. Its 04 module pitch suits precision spur pairings commonly found in TRF and F1 builds.

Wear Resistance and Tooth Profile Benefits

The hard-coated layer on this pinion reduces surface wear over time, while the rounded tooth form helps cut friction and heat buildup during sustained runs.

Compatible Chassis and Spur Types

Intended for use with Tamiya TRF416, TRF417 and F1 models that use 04 module spurs, the Tamiya 42229 is a direct-fit option for competitors fine tuning gear ratios.

Regularly inspect the teeth for nicks and check mesh alignment after each session. Clean grit from the gear area and apply a light smear of grease to the spur.
Yes, if the spur is 04 module and matches the bore size and shaft configuration. Verify tooth count and shaft fit before committing to a race setup.
Look for rounded or chipped teeth, increased noise, or slipping under load. Any steady increase in backlash or rough running indicates replacement is due.
Run a few short, low load sessions to seat the teeth, then recheck mesh and retorque the pinion set screw before full-power runs.
