FAQ

Precision pinion for smoother gear engagement

Tamiya 54578 06 Module Hard Coated Aluminum Pinion Gear 25T OP-1578 provides a precise, low-mass option for tuners who want consistent mesh and reduced rotational inertia. The aluminium construction keeps weight down while maintaining usable strength.

Coating and compatibility notes

The hard surface finish helps the pinion resist abrasion and maintains tooth shape over time. Rounded tooth edges help lower friction and noise in the drivetrain. It is intended for use with 06 Module spur gears across a variety of RC platforms.

Will this pinion fit sealed gearboxes?

It fits where the shaft diameter and 06 Module spur gear spacing match. For sealed gearboxes check shaft clearance and whether the grub screw style suits the shaft access before installation.

Is aluminium prone to stripping compared to steel?

Aluminium is softer than steel, but the hard coating increases surface durability. For very high power applications a steel pinion may last longer, but this part balances lightness and wear resistance for most hobby use.

Should I recheck pinion mesh after the first run?

Yes. After a short break-in run recheck mesh and grub screw tightness, as parts can seat slightly under initial load and vibration.

Can I use this pinion with brushed and brushless setups?

Yes, it is compatible with both motor types as long as the motor shaft and gear spacing are correct. Monitor load and heat in high-power brushless systems.
