Racing Grade Gear Engagement

The 3RACING 64 Pitch 97T Spur Gear 3RAC-SG6497 is produced for tuners requiring repeatable tooth engagement and minimal backlash. Its 64 pitch geometry supports finer ratio tuning and improved meshing characteristics for race applications.

Application and Setup for Competitive Use

This 97T spur is compatible with a wide array of 1/10 scale racing chassis and is ideal when precise ratio selection matters for lap time optimization. The fine pitch reduces localized stress on individual teeth and promotes even wear across the gear face.

Installation and Tuning Notes

For optimal performance, set a small paper-thin clearance between the spur and pinion, then secure motor mounts and retest mesh under brief running conditions. Reassess alignment after finalising motor timing and pinion selection to ensure consistent engagement.

How does 64 pitch affect tuning precision?

A 64 pitch offers finer tooth spacing, enabling smaller incremental changes to overall gearing when swapping pinions. This helps find a more precise balance between acceleration and top speed.

What checks should be part of race prep?

Include gear mesh inspection, torque verification of motor and gearbox fasteners, and a short running check to validate stability of mesh under load before competitive runs.

Are there common upgrade paths from stock spurs?

Racers commonly move to finer pitch spurs like this 64 pitch 97T for smoother engagement, and pair them with hardened or lightweight pinions to optimise durability and rotational inertia.
