Overview
The Hot Racing Steel 26T 32-Pitch Pinion Gear is a hardened-steel pinion gear with a nitrided surface for maximum durability under brushless motor torque. CNC-machined from hardened steel and 32-pitch (0.8 module) toothed, this pinion fits any 5mm brushless motor shaft and pairs with the widely-used 32-pitch spur gear standard.
For drivers seeking a balanced gear ratio that delivers strong acceleration with reasonable top-end speed, the 26T is a versatile, well-balanced choice for general 1/10 RC applications.
Key Features
- CNC-machined hardened steel
- Nitrided surface finish for enhanced hardness
