Overview
The Corally 64 DP Pinion Short Hardened Steel 47 Teeth is a precision engineered pinion gear designed for serious RC enthusiasts who demand reliability and performance from their drivetrain. This high-quality spare part is manufactured by Team Corally, a trusted name in the RC hobby across the UK and beyond, and represents the kind of professional-grade component that competitive RC car builders rely on to maintain peak performance. Whether you're upgrading your RC car UK setup, replacing worn gears after intensive racing, or fine-tuning your gearing ratio for maximum speed and acceleration, this hardened steel pinion offers the durability and precision fit that serious RC bashers and racers expect.
This 47-tooth pinion is engineered with a 3.17mm shaft diameter, making it compatible with a wide range of brushless RC motors and drivetrain systems. The hardened steel construction ensures exceptional wear resistance and longevity, even under the demanding conditions of competitive racing or aggressive bashing. If you're building a high-performance RC buggy, stadium truck, or off-road racing machine, having quality spare gears like this in your spares box is essential for keeping your RC car running smoothly and maintaining consistent performance lap after lap.
RC Model Shop stocks genuine Team Corally spare parts like this pinion gear because we understand that serious RC enthusiasts need access to authentic, reliable components. Whether you're a weekend basher pushing your RC car to the limit or a competitor preparing for the next race meeting, the right gearing setup can make a significant difference to your vehicle's performance on the track or trail. This is why we recommend quality hardened steel pinions like the Corally 64 DP for anyone serious about their RC hobby in the UK.
Key Features
- 47 Teeth Configuration — The 47-tooth design provides a specific gear ratio that balances acceleration and top speed, making it ideal for drivers who want precise control over their RC car's performance characteristics without sacrificing either explosive acceleration or sustained high-speed running.
- Hardened Steel Construction — Unlike standard pinion gears, this component is manufactured from hardened steel, which means it resists wear far more effectively than softer materials, maintaining tooth integrity through hundreds of hours of running and ensuring consistent mesh with your spur gear for reliable power transmission.
- 64 DP (Diametral Pitch) — The 64 DP specification indicates the gear's tooth size and spacing, which is a standard pitch for precision RC applications, ensuring perfect compatibility with matching spur gears and other drivetrain components in the Corally ecosystem and many other modern RC systems.
- 3.17mm Shaft Diameter — The standardised 3.17mm (1/8-inch) shaft diameter makes this pinion compatible with the vast majority of brushless RC motors and motor mounts used in contemporary RC cars, ensuring easy installation and reliable power transmission without wobble or slippage.
- Professional Racing Grade — This is a genuine Team Corally racing component, manufactured to the exacting standards expected by competitive RC car builders and used by teams in competitive racing across Europe, making it suitable for both casual enthusiasts and serious competitors.
- Spare Part Essential — Every serious RC enthusiast should have quality spare pinion gears in their spares box, and this Corally hardened steel option ensures you're never caught without the right gear should yours wear or break during intense racing or bashing sessions.
Technical Performance
The Corally 64 DP Pinion Short Hardened Steel represents genuine racing-grade engineering optimised for demanding RC applications. The 47-tooth configuration combined with the 64 DP pitch creates a precise gear ratio that delivers excellent power delivery across a broad range of motor KV ratings and battery voltages, from 3S LiPo systems commonly used in casual RC cars to higher-voltage 4S and 6S setups favoured by competitive racers. The hardened steel material ensures that tooth profiles remain sharp and true throughout extended running, maintaining perfectly timed mesh with your spur gear for maximum efficiency and minimum drivetrain losses. This is crucial for competitive driving where even marginal improvements in power transmission can affect lap times and overall performance. The 3.17mm shaft diameter is the industry standard for modern brushless RC motors, ensuring this pinion will integrate seamlessly into your existing drivetrain without requiring adapters or modifications. Professional RC teams and competitive builders throughout the UK choose hardened steel pinions like this specifically because they provide superior longevity under the intense vibration and forces generated during high-speed running and aggressive cornering. The short pinion design optimises mesh geometry and reduces the overall weight of your drivetrain, contributing to better weight distribution and handling characteristics in your RC car. Whether you're running a light, fast buggy requiring aggressive gearing or a heavier truck platform, having a quality spare pinion ensures you can quickly swap gears to optimise performance for different track conditions or driving styles without waiting for parts to arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC cars does this pinion fit? — The Corally 64 DP pinion with its 3.17mm shaft diameter is compatible with any RC car that uses standard 3.17mm motor shafts and 64 DP gearing, which includes most modern brushless RC buggies, trucks, and stadium cars available in the UK today. Check your RC car's specifications to confirm it uses 64 DP gearing before purchasing.
- Why should I choose hardened steel over standard pinions? — Hardened steel pinions last significantly longer than standard materials because the metal is heat-treated to increase hardness and wear resistance, meaning your teeth maintain their profile longer, your gearing stays precise through more running hours, and you'll need to replace gears less frequently, saving money in the long run despite the slightly higher initial cost.
- Is this a spare part or does it come in a complete drivetrain? — This is a spare part sold individually, designed for RC enthusiasts who already have an RC car and need to replace a worn pinion, upgrade their gearing ratio, or maintain a spares collection for competitive racing and regular bashing.
- What is the difference between 47 teeth and other tooth counts? — Tooth count directly affects your RC car's gearing ratio; 47 teeth represents a specific ratio that balances acceleration and top speed, while higher tooth counts give more top speed with less acceleration, and lower tooth counts do the opposite, so your choice depends on your track layout and driving preference.
- Can I use this pinion on different RC cars? — Yes, as long as your RC car uses standard 3.17mm motor shafts and 64 DP gearing, this pinion will work, making it an excellent investment for collectors who own multiple RC vehicles or for upgrading a friend's car.
- How do I know if my pinion needs replacing? — Look for visible damage to the teeth, loss of the sharp tooth profile, rough engagement with the spur gear, or unusual grinding sounds during running; any of these signs indicate it's time to replace your pinion with a fresh one like this Corally unit.
