Optimise power transfer with the Tamiya 42262 pinion

RC drivers wanting crisper throttle response will find the Tamiya 42262 - TRF 04 Hard Coat Aluminum Pinion Gear (32T) an effective option. The gear's light construction helps sharpen acceleration while keeping rotating mass low.

Coating that reduces wear and drag

The TRF spec hard coat reduces surface wear and lowers friction between meshing teeth, which maintains smoother drivetrain operation through long practice and race sessions.

Designed for 04 Module Tamiya gear trains

Compatibility is straightforward for models built around 04 Module gears. This pinion lets tuners refine gearing without altering the motor or chassis layout.

Will this pinion work with my brushless motor setup?

Yes, it works with brushless systems provided the motor shaft and gear bore match; check motor mount spacing and shaft diameter before fitting.

Any advice for setting correct gear mesh?

Use a shim or a thin piece of paper to set a small clearance, then tighten securely and recheck under rotation to avoid tooth damage.

Can I swap this into vintage Tamiya kits?

Many older kits using 04 Module gears will accept the pinion, but verify shaft size and gear alignment before committing to the swap.

How much weight saving can I expect vs steel?

Aluminium pinions tend to be noticeably lighter than steel equivalents; the exact saving varies by design but often improves rotational inertia.
