The Arrowmax AM-RX8-348517 17T pinion gear is an RC motor pinion designed for compatibility with the XRAY RX8 chassis, crafted from 7075 aluminium and finished with a hard coating to reduce tooth wear in everyday on-road use.
Choosing this 17-tooth pinion is one way to alter gear ratios; pairing different pinion tooth counts with the spur gear will change the overall drive ratio and influence acceleration versus top speed. The product family offers several tooth counts so builders can swap pinions to dial in handling and performance without altering other drivetrain parts.
Fitment tips: set correct gear mesh to the RX8 spur gear and maintain recommended backlash for on-road setups, inspect tooth alignment after initial laps, and replace if you see visible wear. The hard-coated 7075 alloy balances lightweight construction with improved abrasion resistance for routine gearing swaps.
