Overview
The Hot Racing Steel 35T Mod 1 Pinion Gear is a hardened-steel direct-fit pinion designed specifically for 1/8 scale brushless RC vehicles like the Arrma Limitless and Infraction. CNC-machined from hardened steel and finished in clean black, this 35-tooth Mod 1 pinion is the right gearing choice for drivers seeking serious top-end speed from their high-power 1/8 platform.
For high-speed applications where stock or smaller pinions can't deliver the top-end you want, this 35T option pairs with appropriate spur gears to dial in the gearing for maximum velocity runs and street-style cruising.
Key Features
- CNC-machined hardened steel construction
- Black finish for clean appearance
- 1.0 module (Mod 1) pitch
- 35 tooth count for high-speed gearing
- 5mm bore for standard 1/8 brushless motor shafts
Performance Benefits
- High-speed gearing for maximum top-end velocity
- Hardened steel handles brushless torque
- Long service life under high-RPM operation
- Consistent gear mesh quality
Usage Notes
Apply medium thread-locker to the pinion set screw. Verify gear mesh after installation; there should be a small amount of backlash with no binding. Confirm correct spur gear pairing before installation. High-speed gearing increases motor and ESC heat — monitor temperatures.
