This is a Protek 48P Light Weight Aluminum Pinion Gear. These are light-weight, hard anodized, CNC machined aluminum off road pinion gears that allow your motor to spool up quicker and improve acceleration when powering out of the corners.

Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and hard anodized, these precision cut gears are durable and ideal for any 48 pitch application. Plus, the 18 tooth and larger gears have been machined on the back side to remove as much weight as possible, without sacrificing strength. These gears are available in 13 - 38 tooth variants, and the tooth count is engraved on the gear for easy identification. Each gear includes a setscrew to make installation easy. Choose the tooth count you need from the pull down menu above.

Features:
  • 48 Pitch
  • Choose from 13 to 38 tooth sizes
  • Hard anodized aluminum
  • Super light weight design
  • Etched tooth size for easy identification
  • Less rotating mass
  • Quicker motor spool up

Nice pinions but the 20t def wasn't machined out to save weight, it had a solid face. Other than that works as it should

I have purchased many of these ProTek aluminum pinions. They are always machined well (true), they are lightweight and don't come loose. Price is great.

I've only been using the Pro-Tek pinions for a while now because they are light, machined well and cheap.

Nice part, very well made and the gears are smooth. I am running in a B7D with a 75T spur on a 17.5T motor. No complaints at all with this - now looking at how do I reduce the rotating mass of the pinion. The aluminum is great - may have found some drilled or plastic that are lighter.

ProTek RC 48P Lightweight Hard Anodized Aluminum Pinion Gear (3.17mm Bore) (18T)
Bought with my element builders kit 2 it said hard aluminum and I thought great it’s going against a plastic spur should be okay. It wasn’t lasted maybe a month and now it looks like I put it in a sand blaster. it’s covered by a cover and not exposed to sand and dust but the plastic spur is fine. Maybe I should get a plastic pinion ?

Used this on Senton-Mega v3 with NiMH. Ran it about twice per week on mostly high grip (tarmac) surfaces, it eventually lasted about a month before pinion teeth started looking like shark teeth. I frequently checked to make sure mesh looked good, it might've not always been perfectly meshed but I feel like a "metal" pinion gear should not deform this easily/quickly when meshed against a plastic spur gear.

Completely stripped in 20 min on 2S Brushless. Although super weak for me they are perfectly made and crazy light. As long as your not pushing a ton of power these are great.
