These Solink gears benefit from a complete helical design across the entire gear train.
Included is a D-type helical pinion gear, grub screw, and allen key for easier installation.
These gears have advantages over traditional spur (straight-cut) gears.
The angled teeth engage more gradually, causing them to run more smoothly and quietly. Because of this, these gears may provide a more desirable gear meshing noise when properly shimmed.
Additionally, due to their design, these gears may yield an increase in load capacity.
Note: these gears can increase axial load on bearings, as opposed to common straight-cut gears which primarily generate radial load. Although high-quality Airsoft bearings can tolerate some axial load and may work just fine, they aren't specifically made for handling significant axial loads.
Depending on the configuration, it may be advisable to change to solid bushings on some or all of the gear axles when using these gears.
Use of a high-quality adhesive like Loctite 638 or JB Weld is recommended for installing the pinion gear.
Requirements:
- Technical skill & experience
- A trimmed tappet plate fin. An 11mm fin is usually sufficient, but further trimming may be required for some builds
- A piston with durable steel release teeth
- Strong tappet plate spring
- A stronger spring or large spring guide spacer to increase the power output and prevent pre-engagement
Manufacturers notes:
- Solink High Speed DSG Gear Set for Gearbox
- Suitable for Version 2 / 3 Airsoft Electric Gun AEG Gearbox
- High strength; not easy to deform.
- Increases rate of fire.
- CNC machining, enhanced gear to be more durable and bearing stronger spring
- New axis design -- improved gear concentricity.
- Lower electricity consumption & lower noise.
