Instead of letting the motor shaft rub directly against the crown hub, the modular system uses a separate ferrule and free-running steel washers. The washers act like miniature thrust bearings, allowing the parts to move independently on a film of oil and reducing friction and wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the modular system matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLower drivetrain drag:\u003c\/strong\u003e the calibrated washers reduce rubbing between the motor shaft, crown and locking hardware.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReduced wear:\u003c\/strong\u003e less direct friction means the gear can stay smooth for longer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible pinion choice:\u003c\/strong\u003e use SIGMF55 with 5.5 mm pinions or SIGMF60 with 6.0 mm pinions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e26-tooth ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e a strong all-around choice for race cars that need a balance of acceleration, braking and straightaway speed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e This modular crown requires a separate Slot.it lock-ring ferrule—SIGMF55 for 5.5 mm pinions or SIGMF60 for 6.0 mm pinions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJim's setup note:\u003c\/strong\u003e The advantage here is not that the gear ratio itself is different from a conventional 26T crown; it is that the drivetrain can run freer. Set the mesh with just enough clearance to avoid binding, keep the washers lightly oiled, and make sure the locking screw reaches the axle through the opening in the crown hub.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Slot.it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: GM26i \/ SIGM26i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGear type: Modular inline crown gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeeth: 26\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHub: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAxle: 3\/32\" \/ 2.38 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFerrule required: SIGMF55 or SIGMF60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of origin: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHS code: 9503.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Slot.it","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50729264283845,"sku":"SIGM26i","price":7.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/4937\/9525\/files\/slotit-sigm26i-product.png?v=1792282702","url":"https:\/\/omnislotbox.com\/products\/slot-it-sigm26i-26t-modular-inline-crown-gear-aluminum-hub","provider":"OmniSlotBox at the Slotcar Clubhouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
