Key Features
- Precision Manufactured Steel Construction — This input gear is machined from high-quality steel using precision manufacturing techniques, ensuring that gear teeth are perfectly formed and consistent, which translates to accurate mesh with your differential and pinion gear for optimal transmission efficiency.
- 13-Tooth Configuration — The 13-tooth design is specifically engineered for ARRMA 4S v2 vehicles, providing the correct gear ratio for balanced acceleration and top speed performance across the range of compatible models.
- 1.35 Module Tooth Profile — The huge 1.35 module tooth profile delivers significantly higher tooth strength compared to smaller module gears, meaning this component can handle the extreme forces and acceleration demands of 4S brushless RC vehicles without stripping, cracking, or wearing prematurely.
- Splined Shaft Design — The precision-engineered splined shaft ensures a secure, repeatable connection to your transmission input, preventing slippage and guaranteeing reliable power transfer from your motor to the differential under heavy acceleration and cornering.
- Long-Lasting Durability — Steel construction provides superior durability compared to plastic or composite gears, meaning this component will withstand thousands of high-speed runs, jumps, and hard cornering without degradation, saving you money on replacements over time.
- High-Strength Engineering — Every aspect of this gear is designed for strength and reliability, from the material selection through to the tooth profile and shaft design, ensuring it performs reliably whether you're running 3S or 4S LiPo power in your ARRMA vehicle.
- Drop-in Replacement — This metal input gear is engineered to be a direct replacement component, requiring no modifications to your vehicle, making maintenance and upgrades straightforward for RC enthusiasts of all experience levels.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Metal Input Gear represents a significant upgrade in drivetrain durability for any 4S v2 ARRMA vehicle. Manufactured from premium steel with precision tolerances, this 13-tooth input gear is engineered to handle the intense power delivery of brushless motors running 4S LiPo batteries. The 1.35 module tooth profile is substantially larger than standard composite gears, providing greater contact area between teeth and the mating pinion gear, which reduces stress concentration and dramatically improves wear resistance. Precision manufacturing ensures that tooth geometry is perfect across all thirteen teeth, meaning even mesh engagement and smooth torque delivery throughout the entire operating range. The splined shaft is hardened steel, designed to transmit peak motor torque without slippage or deformation. This component is essential for anyone running hard-bash RC action or competitive racing, as the steel construction will maintain performance over extended use whereas composite gears degrade and eventually strip under sustained high-load conditions. Compatible with ARRMA's full range of 4S v2 vehicles including BIG ROCK, GRANITE, KRATON, OUTCAST, SENTON, VORTEKS and TYPHON models, this input gear represents a genuine performance and reliability upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the ARRMA Metal Input Gear suitable for 4S brushless RC vehicles? — Yes, this 13-tooth metal input gear is specifically engineered for ARRMA 4S v2 models and is fully compatible with brushless motors running 4S LiPo batteries, delivering reliable performance under the high torque and speed demands of modern brushless RC cars.
- What is the advantage of metal gears over composite gears in RC vehicles? — Metal gears, particularly those manufactured from steel like this input gear, offer substantially superior durability and strength compared to plastic or composite alternatives. Steel gears resist stripping, cracking and wear far better than composite materials, meaning they maintain performance over thousands of runs and deliver better long-term value.
- Will this input gear fit my ARRMA RC truck? — This metal input gear is compatible with a wide range of ARRMA 4S v2 models including the BIG ROCK 223S, GRANITE 223S, KRATON 4S, OUTCAST 4S, SENTON 223S, VORTEKS 223S, TYPHON 223S and other v2 variants. Check your specific model against the detailed compatibility list to confirm fitment.
- What does the 1.35 module specification mean? — The module rating refers to the tooth size and spacing of the gear. A 1.35 module is considered a large module, meaning the teeth are larger and stronger than smaller modules (like 1.0 or 1.2), providing greater load-carrying capacity and durability for high-power RC applications.
- Do I need any special tools to install this metal input gear? — This metal input gear is designed as a drop-in replacement component that requires no modifications to your vehicle. Standard RC tools like hex drivers, allen keys and screwdrivers should be sufficient for installation; always refer to your ARRMA vehicle manual for precise installation instructions.
- What other components do I need to purchase with this input gear? — This input gear requires compatible metal diff sets and related transmission components to function properly in your vehicle. The compatible part numbers (#ARA311152 and #ARA311154) should be checked to ensure you have all necessary components for your specific ARRMA model.
- How often will I need to replace this metal input gear? — Thanks to its steel construction and robust 1.35 module tooth profile, this metal input gear is designed for extended service life. With proper maintenance and normal use, you can expect thousands of running hours before replacement becomes necessary, making it an excellent long-term investment in your RC vehicle's reliability.
