Key Features
- Spiral Cut Hardened Machine Cut Gears — The spiral cut design is engineered to provide superior durability and efficiency compared to standard gears, which means your RC model experiences less heat generation and significantly reduced noise during operation, resulting in a smoother and more pleasant driving experience.
- Improved Durability — These heavy-duty gears are manufactured to withstand the intense stresses and demands of serious RC use, whether you're driving on road, dirt, or rocky terrain, ensuring your drivetrain remains reliable through countless driving sessions.
- Genuine Axial Spare Part — As an official Axial component, this bevel gear set guarantees compatibility and quality assurance, giving you confidence that you're installing a part engineered specifically for your vehicle by the manufacturer.
- Direct Replacement for Yeti XL — This set replaces the original AX31053 gears and requires no shims, making installation straightforward and ensuring perfect fitment without additional modifications or adjustments to your RC model.
- Reduced Gear Noise — The spiral cut design inherently produces less mechanical noise than traditional gears, which is particularly beneficial if you enjoy driving in areas where noise levels matter or if you simply prefer a quieter RC experience.
- Lower Heat Generation — Efficient gearing produces less heat, which protects your drivetrain components from thermal stress and extends the overall lifespan of your RC vehicle's transmission system.
Technical Performance
The AXIAL HD Bevel Gear Set 32T/11T represents professional-grade engineering in miniature form. Constructed from hardened materials and precision machine cut, these gears incorporate spiral cut tooth profiles that are recognised throughout the RC hobby as the gold standard for performance and longevity. The 32-tooth and 11-tooth configuration provides the specific gear ratio required for Axial Yeti XL platforms, ensuring seamless integration with your existing drivetrain. The spiral cut design is not merely aesthetic—it's a functional improvement that reduces contact stress between gear teeth, which in turn minimises wear, heat generation, and the mechanical noise that can occur with standard spur gears. This is particularly important for RC enthusiasts who run their vehicles extensively, as the reduced thermal load helps prevent premature wear and maintains consistent performance throughout long driving sessions. The hardened construction ensures these gears can handle the shock loads and sudden torque spikes that are inherent to RC driving, whether you're accelerating hard from a standstill or managing rough terrain.
