Gear Diff Set - Atom/2

The Schumacher SCH-U8179 Gear Diff Set for Atom/2 has been designed and developed by the engineering and race team to deliver a consistent, low-maintenance alternative to a ball differential. It offers a more stable corner entry with improved mid-corner and exit rotation, helping refine handling across a wide range of track conditions.

Key Features

• Consistent, easy setting with minimal change from race to race and reduced maintenance.
• Improved handling balance: stable corner entry, enhanced mid and exit rotation.
• Fully ball raced for precision, performance and lower upkeep.
• Steel axle for strength and reliability.
• 60T 48dp spur gear included.
• Oil-filled design allows tuning via viscosity for different grip levels.
• Optional U8353 carbon axle available (approx. 8 g lighter).

Tuning Guidance

• 700cSt–2000cSt: suited to low grip conditions.
• 2000cSt–5000cSt: suited to medium grip conditions.
• 5000cSt–15000cSt: suited to high grip conditions.

Differential Choice Notes

• Ball differential: easiest to drive and may suit low grip tracks.
• Gear differential: moderate to drive, with broader tunability using the correct oil for all-round conditions.

This Gear Diff Set brings precise, repeatable performance with the convenience of oil tuning, making it a strong choice for Atom/2 racers seeking stable handling and reduced maintenance.
