Key features of the Arrma ARA311000 17T 0.8Mod Safe-D5 pinion gear
- Steel construction – supports long-lasting performance under high torque and extreme RC conditions
- Wide tooth profile – enables smooth and efficient power transfer
- Safe-D5 motor shaft fitment – prevents drive loss if set screw backs out
- Threaded set-screw hole – allows secure and precise installation
- E-clip included – ensures pinion gear retention on motor shaft
The pinion gear ARA311000 Arrma wide tooth profile for smooth operation and steel durability features a carefully machined 17-tooth layout that promotes consistent gear meshing and reduced drivetrain noise. The wider tooth profile enhances contact surface area, which improves torque transmission and minimises wear over time. This design is particularly beneficial for RC drivers who demand smooth acceleration and stable braking across varied terrain. Combined with the steel build, this gear offers a dependable solution for high-stress environments.
How does the Safe-D5 design improve drivetrain reliability?
The RC motor gear ARA311000 Arrma D-shaped hole for secure braking and torque retention incorporates a Safe-D5 interface that matches the profile of 5mm motor shafts. This D-shaped hole prevents rotation loss even if the set screw loosens during operation, ensuring that braking and drive functions remain intact. This feature is critical for maintaining control during high-speed runs and aggressive manoeuvres, making the gear a trusted choice for competitive RC setups.
What role does the set screw and E-clip play in gear stability?
The drive gear ARA311000 Arrma threaded set-screw hole and E-clip for shaft stability includes a precision-machined M4 x 4mm set screw that threads securely into the gear body. This allows for tight clamping onto the motor shaft, reducing the risk of slippage. Additionally, the supplied 3.2mm E-clip adds a secondary layer of retention, locking the gear in place and preventing axial movement. Together, these components ensure that the gear remains firmly mounted during intense driving conditions.
Is the Arrma ARA311000 precision-cut 17T pinion gear suitable for extreme RC use?
Absolutely. The Arrma ARA311000 precision-cut 17T pinion gear is built for durability and performance in demanding RC environments. Its steel composition resists deformation and wear, while the precision-cut teeth maintain consistent engagement with spur gears. This combination of materials and machining quality makes the gear ideal for brushless motor systems and high-speed applications where drivetrain integrity is essential. Whether you're racing on tarmac or bashing through rough terrain, this gear delivers reliable output.
Why is the Arrma ARA311000 steel RC motor pinion gear an affordable upgrade?
For RC enthusiasts seeking a cost-effective performance enhancement, the affordable ARA311000 Arrma RC motor gear with steel build and precision tooth profile offers excellent value. Its robust construction and thoughtful design reduce the need for frequent replacements, while the included hardware simplifies installation. The gear’s compatibility with 5mm motor shafts and its Safe-D5 retention system make it a practical choice for a wide range of RC vehicles. This affordability, paired with high-end performance, makes it a smart investment for hobbyists and professionals alike.
In conclusion, the Arrma ARA311000 17T 0.8Mod Safe-D5 pinion gear combines steel strength, precision engineering, and secure fitment to deliver a dependable solution for RC drivetrain systems. Its wide tooth profile, Safe-D5 motor shaft interface, and included set screw and E-clip work together to ensure smooth operation and long-term reliability. Whether you're upgrading for performance or replacing worn components, this gear supports consistent power delivery and drivetrain control.
