Overview
Adapt 1/8-inch motor shafts to standard 2mm pinion gears with the Hot Racing 1/8 Inch to 2mm Pinion Gear Conversion Sleeve. CNC-machined from silver aluminum, this precision sleeve slides over a 1/8-inch motor shaft to convert it to a 2mm output, opening up the wider universe of 2mm-bore pinion gears for your micro RC vehicle.
This is a common need for tuners running aftermarket motors with 1/8-inch shafts on micro platforms like the Losi Mini-T 1.0, where 2mm pinions are the standard. A simple, affordable solution to a common compatibility problem.
Key Features
- CNC-machined aluminum construction
- Silver finish
- Adapts 1/8-inch motor shaft to 2mm pinion bore
- Precision-machined for slop-free fit
- Includes one conversion sleeve
Performance Benefits
- Opens up 2mm pinion gear compatibility on 1/8-inch shaft motors
- Tight precision fit for slop-free torque transfer
- Lightweight aluminum construction
Usage Notes
Verify your motor shaft is exactly 1/8 inch (3.175mm) and your pinion bore is exactly 2mm before purchase. Slide the sleeve onto the motor shaft, then press the 2mm pinion onto the sleeve. Use a small drop of cyanoacrylate (CA) glue if a slip-fit develops over time. Gears and motor shown in product images are NOT included.
