This 16-tooth pinion is an RC-scale replacement part intended for the XRAY RX8 clutch/pinion system, provided by Arrowmax under part AM-RX8-348516. The component is produced from 7075-T6 aluminium with a hard-coated finish to resist wear while keeping mass low, and it is intended to mesh with the RX8 spur gear setup.
Installation follows standard pinion replacement practice for the RX8: remove the existing pinion from the motor/clutch assembly, position the new 16T on the shaft at the correct engagement depth, and secure it with the original mounting hardware. Verify gear mesh and rotation by hand before running the model.
On tuning role, this 16T option is used to fine-tune acceleration and top-speed tradeoffs as part of gear ratio changes; Arrowmax also offers adjacent tooth counts for incremental adjustments to match track or driving style.
