Key Features
- CNC Machined Steel Construction — This spur gear is precision-manufactured from super-strong steel, delivering extreme durability that withstands the punishment of high-speed driving, hard landings, and aggressive acceleration on rough terrain. Steel gears resist stripping and cracking far better than plastic alternatives, making this a worthwhile investment for any serious RC enthusiast.
- 61-Tooth Configuration — The 61T tooth count is specifically calibrated for optimal performance in ARRMA 1/16 scale monster trucks, providing the right balance of torque delivery and acceleration characteristics that these vehicles are designed for. This tooth count ensures your drivetrain operates within its intended performance envelope.
- 0.5 Module Precision Tooth Design — The precision 0.5 module tooth configuration guarantees consistent, smooth mesh with your pinion gear, eliminating backlash and ensuring reliable power transfer from motor to wheels. Precision tooth geometry means less wear, quieter operation, and more predictable handling characteristics.
- Long-Lasting Durability — Unlike plastic gears that degrade with use, this steel spur gear maintains its structural integrity season after season, making it a cost-effective choice when you factor in the longevity you'll achieve. Serious bashers know that steel is the material choice for components that need to last.
- Compatible with Multiple ARRMA Models — This genuine ARRMA spare part is designed to fit the GORGON GROM 4X4 (available in Yellow, Bronze, and Red colour options) and the QUAKE GROM 4X4 (available in Purple, Red, and Green), ensuring you get the perfect fit for your specific RC monster truck.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA CNC Steel Spur Gear 61T is engineered to exacting tolerances that meet the performance requirements of 1/16 scale ready to run RC monster trucks. The CNC precision manufacturing process ensures that every gear produced meets identical specifications, with the 0.5 module tooth profile optimised for minimal backlash and maximum efficiency in power transmission. The super-tough steel material used in construction provides superior wear resistance compared to composite alternatives, which is why this component is the preferred choice for builds that will see repeated, intense use. The 61-tooth configuration has been specifically selected for the GORGON GROM and QUAKE GROM platforms, tuned to work seamlessly with these vehicles' motor and pinion gear systems. When properly meshed with the corresponding pinion, this spur gear delivers smooth acceleration, consistent torque delivery, and reliable performance across a wide range of driving conditions—from smooth tarmac to rough off-road terrain. The precision engineering of this component means you'll experience minimal noise and vibration during operation, translating to better control and a more refined driving experience compared to worn or lower-quality gears. For RC enthusiasts who understand that drivetrain maintenance is crucial to vehicle longevity and performance, this steel spur gear represents genuine value for money.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the ARRMA CNC Steel Spur Gear 61T a genuine OEM part? — Yes, this is an official ARRMA genuine spare part (part number Z-ARA-2315), manufactured to the same exacting standards as the components supplied with new ARRMA vehicles. When you buy genuine ARRMA spares, you're guaranteed compatibility and quality assurance that aftermarket alternatives simply cannot match.
- What vehicles is this spur gear compatible with? — This 61T steel spur gear is specifically engineered for ARRMA 1/16 scale GORGON GROM 4X4 and QUAKE GROM 4X4 monster trucks. It is compatible with all colour variants of these models, including GORGON GROM in Yellow, Bronze, and Red, and QUAKE GROM in Purple, Red, and Green.
- Why should I choose a steel spur gear over plastic alternatives? — Steel spur gears offer significantly superior durability compared to plastic or nylon gears commonly found in budget RC parts. Steel resists stripping, cracking, and deformation under load, meaning your investment will last longer and maintain consistent performance even with frequent use. For anyone serious about maintaining their RC car UK investment, steel is the material choice that delivers value over time.
- How do I know when my spur gear needs replacing? — Signs that your spur gear needs replacement include grinding noises from the drivetrain, visible tooth damage or wear, increased backlash or play in the drivetrain, or difficulty accelerating smoothly. Regular inspection of your spur gear during maintenance routines will help you catch wear before it becomes a problem.
- Will this gear work with other ARRMA models? — This spur gear is specifically engineered for 1/16 scale GORGON GROM and QUAKE GROM models only. Other ARRMA vehicles use different gear ratios and tooth counts. Always verify the part number matches your specific vehicle model before purchasing replacement components.
- How is the 0.5 module specification important? — The 0.5 module specification refers to the gear tooth pitch and design standard. This measurement is critical for ensuring that the spur gear meshes perfectly with your pinion gear, maintaining proper backlash and ensuring smooth, efficient power transfer. Using a gear with the wrong module specification will result in poor meshing, noise, and accelerated wear.
