48 Pitch 22T Pinion Gear

This Yokomo YOKPG4822 48 pitch 22 teeth pinion is a straightforward replacement part for 48 pitch gear setups used in electric RC models. It is presented as a direct pinion option where pitch and tooth count match the existing spur gear and motor gear spacing, serving the basic role of transferring torque from the motor to the drivetrain.

Use this pinion when your setup requires a 22-tooth, 48 pitch unit to achieve desired gear ratios or to replace a worn or damaged pinion. It is intended as an RC-scale accessory for motor gear trains and should be evaluated against your motor shaft type and existing spur gear to confirm correct mesh and alignment before installation.

Installation and tuning notes:

• Check motor shaft fit and the pinion set-screw seating before final mesh adjustment.
• Establish proper gear mesh by using a thin paper method or a feeler to avoid excessive backlash or binding.
• After initial run-in, re-tighten the set-screw and verify that the mesh remains consistent under load.
• When changing tooth count, consider overall ratio effects on acceleration and top speed and adjust drivetrain cooling or maintenance schedule accordingly.
