Overview
The Castle Creations Mod 1.5 Pinion Gear (010-0065-26) is a precision-machined pinion designed for 1/5 and 1/6 scale RC vehicles running large-scale brushless motors. Built with a Mod 1.5 tooth profile, 18-tooth count, and 8mm bore, this pinion delivers strong, reliable power transfer in demanding large-scale applications.
CNC-machined for precision and durability, the Mod 1.5 pinion features the largest possible Allen-head set screw for a secure, slip-free grip on the motor shaft. The 8mm bore fits the standard motor shafts used on most large-scale brushless motors, including Castle's 1717 and similar 4-pole motors.
For drivers running 1/5 or 1/6 scale rigs like the Arrma Kraton 8S, Outcast 8S, or Traxxas X-Maxx, the Mod 1.5 pinion is a proven, durable choice that holds up to high-torque, high-RPM driving.
