The MG528T/0.5M pinion is a 28-tooth motor gear made for 48-pitch systems with a 0.5mm module and a 5mm motor bore. It is suitable for electric RC drive trains running 48-pitch gearing.
This pinion is suitable for replacing worn parts or for fitting a 28T ratio into an existing 48-pitch setup. The 45-steel build provides a durable contact surface, though correct mesh and alignment remain essential to avoid accelerated wear on mating gears.
Installation advice: check the motor shaft bore is 5mm, position the pinion axially for correct mesh, secure the fastener and test for endplay. After initial running inspect tooth engagement and fastener tightness and make micro-adjustments to mesh as required for smooth operation.
Tuning note: switching to this 28T pinion changes the driven ratio in predictable increments, affecting acceleration and top speed while staying within 48-pitch compatibility and the limits of your motor and ESC.
