Technical 80T Spur Gear Overview for Tuning

The 3RACING Sakura Zero 48 Pitch Spur Gear 80T is designed for racers who need consistent tooth engagement and repeatable drivetrain behaviour. As a plastic spur it provides a predictable baseline for tuning pinion counts and mesh settings during setup sessions.

Performance and Fit Characteristics

  • Precision Design: 48 pitch profile maintains a uniform contact patch that supports stable gear ratios under varied throttle inputs.
  • Durable Material: Engineered plastic composition offers an even wear rate suitable for practice and race prep without adding unnecessary mass.
  • Compatibility: Dimensions align with Sakura Zero gearboxes, enabling straightforward swaps during setup changes.

Setup Notes for Competitive Use

When installing the 3RACING 80T spur gear, set pinion engagement to achieve minimal backlash while avoiding binding. Verify runout and secure mountings, then validate mesh after a measured run-in period.

Which pinion tooth counts pair well for track settings?

Choose a pinion that keeps motor RPM in the effective power band for your track. Small changes in tooth count adjust acceleration and top speed tradeoffs.

How should I monitor gear wear between events?

Inspect tooth profiles for rounding and check for movement in the hub. Track hours and replace the spur before performance drops noticeably.

Is this spur suitable for tune testing before switching to metal?

Yes, the plastic spur is ideal for baseline tuning. If tests show high torque stress, move to a hardened metal spur for durability.

What are the best practices for setting mesh under load?

Set mesh with the motor secured, run short validation laps, then recheck fasteners and mesh. Small incremental adjustments yield the best results.
