Xray have announced their precision-molded spur gears made from a special composite material that gives long life, minimal wear and minimizing breakage and stripping. Strategically lightened to reduce rotating mass, the special composite material will withstand even the most extreme racing conditions which imparts high tension and shear forces on the spur gears. The spur gears are injected in a specially-constructed mold which ensures equal material injection for ultra-true and wobble-free running of the spur gear. Each gear is stamped with a tooth number for easy identification and are available in 45T, 46T & 47T 2nd gears and 48T, 49T & 50T 1st gears.
