New 8 tooth gear!

[JohannesESTONIA]

Finally, LEGO has updated the 8 tooth gearwheel. The've made it alot stronger and now it also does'nt move between the liftarms. I got it from the 8293 Power Function set. But it should also appear in all the 2013 sets. Just wanted to inform you

Here is the pic and info: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=10928

You are pretty late, you know?

I'm sure alot of people have been bothered before by the old 8 tooth gear moving between pin holes. Either way, if the new one is stronger, that's good, especially for those who build and drive offroad trucks and damage old 8 tooth gears.

Lol, nearly 1 year late.

I was expecting to see the red non friction 8 tooth gear in here...

I only learned about the new 8t a few months ago after someone on EB told me about them. I ordered a few and was extremely impressed with the results, and put them to good use in my crawlers.

I'm sure there are some other people, perhaps new to EB that didn't know, cause it is easy to miss the odd thread.

I made that original thread you guys are talking about Yeah quite old topic http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=77927&hl=+tooth%20+gear#entry1481990

My bad I just discovered it

BrickLink posted it about 8 months ago. But not everyone is on BrickLink so at least someone here may have found it to be "news". :D

Same here, could use a few of those for a new MOC I'm building (teleloader). Anyone know if they are for sale yet? And no, not planning on buying 42009.

It doesnt seem to be added to Bricklink yet but there is one seller (NL) who appears to have parted out 42009 already as I have just ordered some of the new panels from him.

You could try asking him if he has them available.

Finally! this one wont sink in inside the holes of the beams

[nicjasno]

Yeah, that was annoying more often, than it was usefull.

[Erik Leppen]

Does a bush fit besides the new 8t gear (on a parallel axle right next to it)? Can someone who has one test this?

[jantjeuh]

I think it fits, though I haven't tested it. The teeth themselves aren't any longer, they just have more support.
