Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the 96T 64DP specification and why does it matter for my RC car? — The 96T refers to the number of teeth on the spur gear, whilst 64DP indicates the diametral pitch or gear tooth profile standard. This specification ensures the gear meshes perfectly with matching 64DP pinions, providing smooth power transmission and precise gear ratios. Different tooth counts on the spur or pinion allow you to adjust your overall gear ratio, changing your RC car's acceleration and top speed characteristics to suit different track conditions.
- Is the AS4615 spur gear compatible with other Associated chassis? — This spur gear is listed as ideal for the Team Associated RC12R5 on-road chassis. For compatibility with other Associated models, we recommend checking your specific chassis documentation or contacting our knowledgeable team at RC Model Shop, where our RC experts can confirm compatibility with your particular platform.
- How often should I replace my RC car's spur gear? — Spur gear replacement frequency depends on usage intensity, driving style and maintenance standards. Competitive racers may replace gears more frequently than casual drivers. Regular inspection for wear, chipped teeth or excessive backlash will indicate when replacement is necessary. Keeping your gear mesh properly adjusted and maintaining correct lubrication extends component lifespan significantly.
- What pinion should I use with this 96-tooth spur gear? — The pinion selection depends on your desired final gear ratio and performance characteristics. A 64DP pinion is required for compatibility. Common pinion sizes range from around 12 to 18 teeth depending on the track layout and driving style. Our RC Model Shop team can advise on the optimal setup for your specific needs and help you calculate gear ratios.
- Why choose the genuine Team Associated AS4615 over aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Team Associated components are manufactured to exacting standards using quality materials and precision engineering. Authentic parts ensure proper mesh engagement, longevity and reliable performance that supports the racing characteristics of your RC12R5 chassis. Choosing genuine components eliminates compatibility uncertainties and guarantees you're using parts designed specifically for your platform.
- Can I use this spur gear for casual weekend driving or only for racing? — Absolutely, this spur gear is suitable for all driving styles. Whether you're a competitive racer at club level or enjoy recreational bashing with friends, the AS4615 provides the reliable performance and precision engineering that enhances your overall RC experience. It's equally valuable as a replacement component for maintaining your existing setup or as an upgrade to factory specifications.
