Race-grade 64 Pitch 18T pinion by 3RACING

The 3RACING 64 Pitch Pinion Gear 18T is engineered from 7075 aluminium with a hard coat to preserve tooth geometry under high load. This pinion targets racers and tuners who demand consistent engagement and predictable wear characteristics.

Fine pitch mesh for precise drivetrain tuning

The 64 pitch profile enables a smaller contact patch and finer mesh adjustments, which helps reduce gear lash and improves torque transfer. The 18-tooth choice is suited to setups that require a balanced compromise between acceleration and top speed for competitive running.

Material choice and surface treatment

7075 aluminium provides a high strength-to-weight ratio, allowing the pinion to resist deformation at elevated RPMs. The hard coating adds abrasion resistance to protect the tooth profile and extend service intervals during frequent running.

Compatibility notes and installation

Intended for systems running 64 pitch gearing, the pinion conforms to standard dimensions for direct fitment. For optimal results, verify shaft diameter and set precise mesh using shims or motor plate adjustments as part of a racing setup routine.

64 pitch allows finer tooth engagement which helps achieve lower backlash and more consistent contact patterns, beneficial for precise setup and predictable handling.
Set mesh accurately with shims and verify under load; use a torque-limited driver for the grub screw and recheck after break-in runs to maintain repeatable performance.
The hard coat reduces abrasive wear on tooth surfaces, keeping the contact pattern stable for longer and delaying the need for replacement in high RPM conditions.
