- Steel construction
- 18:1 ratio gearset
- Compatible with version 2 and 3 gearboxes
For those working on a build which pushes the limits, you will require some decent gears! Introducing the VFC Avalon 18:1 Steel gearset, a standard ratio gearset constructed from hardened steel. The set includes a spur gear, sector gear, and bevel gear which are all precisely machined for perfect meshing and smooth, reliable performance.
These gears are tuned to an 18:1 ratio, which means for every 18 revolutions of your motor the gearbox will complete one full cycle. The benefit of using standard ratio gears is that you can make either a DMR or a high-rate-of-fire CQB beast without wholly committing to one or another, meaning you can adapt your build to the scenario which suits, and without overstressing the gearbox by running it considerably beyond its design parameters.
Treat your AEG to some premium gears and have it shooting consistently for a long long time, plus you have the flexibility of running a DMR one day, then alternating to a rapid-fire monster the next day!
- Steel construction
- 16:1 High-speed gearset
- For AEG with V2/V3 gear compatibility
If you are looking to further extend your advantage and push your AEG to the limits reinforced gears are a must for long term reliability under increased stress. This Laylax EG Hard Gear Set is specifically designed for Airsoft AEGs with a version 2 or version 3 gearbox, or compatibility with v2/3 gearsets and includes a hardened steel spur gear, sector gear and bevel gear. This gearset is a high speed set with a ratio of 16:1, intended to provide a slight speed increase with the same motor compared to the standard 18:1 gears in most AEGs.
- High speed gear set
- Fits most Airsoft gearboxes
- 13:1 Ratio - Great for high ROF builds
Building a speed demon of an AEG? You will need high speed gears to get the most out of it! The CNC steel High Speed Gearset from CYMA has a 13:1 ratio, which means every 13 motor turns the gearbox will cycle once, which is a step faster than standard 18:1 Airsoft gears. These gears pair perfectly with a high speed motor to provide a demonic rate of fire, as can be seen in the latest upgraded versions of CYMA's Platinum series AEGs. This gearset is designed for use with M120 springs and below only, so should be fine for most UK legal Airsoft AEGs but is not suitable for a DMR rifle with high FPS. This gearset is a version 2/3 set so should work in any AEG with a V2/3 gearbox and many others which share the same gears.
- Replacement original part
- Hardened steel construction
- For version 2 & version 3 AEG gearboxes
If you have had a mishap with your bevel gear, this KRYTAC replacement part should sort it! The KRYTAC Bevel Gear Assembly for V2/3 AEG Gearbox is constructed from hardened steel and is compatible with any AEG which uses a V2 or V3 gearbox. The hardened steel construction makes this bevel gear perfect to pair with an upgraded motor to guarantee long-term performance.
- Steel construction
- 4-Gear gear set
- For CYMA CM.057 series & Real Sword SVD
If you've stripped a gear in your CYMA or Real Sword SVD, you're in luck! The CYMA Steel Gear Set for CYMA/Real Sword SVD/SVU is a replacement original parts set for the CYMA CM.057 SVD/SVU AEG series and should also be compatible with the Real Sword Dragunov SVD.
The gears are constructed from steel and come as a set of 4, replacing all gears inside the unique SVD gearbox. These gears are not compatible with the A&K Dragunov SVD, only the CYMA CM.057 series and the Real Sword Dragunov.
- Pinion & bevel gear set
- Helical gears - Experts only!
- For version 2 & 3 gearboxes
If you're the techy type and are seeking a smooth, buttery-sounding gearbox with maximum efficiency, helical gears must be on your shopping list! The Lonex Spiral Bevel Gear & Helical Pinion Gear for V2/3 Gearbox includes a pinion gear and bevel gear, both constructed from steel for maximum strength. The included pinion gear is an "O type", designed for O-type motor shafts and not compatible with D-type shafts.
These gears differ from standard bevel and pinion gears in the angle of the teeth, cut in a helix shape and designed to increase torque and efficiency. This also means the gearbox report will be far quieter with these installed, though strong bushings are recommended for the bevel gear due to the increase in axial thrust force generated. Naturally, this set is ideally used by a techy skirmisher with the prerequisite knowledge needed to bring out the best performance and longevity from their setup.

If you are looking for exceptional performance for your AEG, either for a high rate of fire build or a DMR running at higher than normal FPS reinforced gears are a must for long term reliability under increased stress. The Laylax EG Hard Gear Set is compatible with any AEG with a version 2 or version 3 gearbox and includes a hardened steel spur gear, sector gear and bevel gear. This gearset is a standard ratio set (18:1), intended to provide a great compromise between high speed and high torque, allowing you to take your build in either direction and still benefit from reinforced gears!

If you feel the need for speed, the EG Hard Gear Set 13:1 Ratio for Version 2/3 Gearbox from Laylax will give you just that! The renowned Laylax/Prometheus EG Hard Gear series boasts over a decade of service, crafted with precision through Japanese machining, heat treatment, and forging techniques that adhere to the highest standards. This meticulous manufacturing ensures a notably quieter gear mesh sound, even under higher FPS and fire rate conditions.
These are 13:1 high-speed gears, improving rate of fire and trigger response by cycling the gearbox once every 13 motor revolutions as opposed to the standard once per 18 revolutions. This means you can boost rate of fire without upgrading your motor, though like any other replacement gearsets, these will require expertise to install. If you already upgraded your motor, wiring and added a MOSFET and you still want more speed, this gearset will do the trick.

About Our Airsoft Gears, Gear Sets & Gear Ratios
The absolute bread and butter of your gearbox, the gears are an important part of your AEG's operation and ratios need to be accurate for endless rounds of smooth firing. Stock up on your mods, replacements or spares and explore our full range of airsoft gears and gear sets, from top brands like ASG and Modify.
As simple as it is, It’s vital to bear in mind that the higher the quality of your airsoft gears, the longer your AEG is going to last. However it’s also worth considering that massively up-rated steel gears are pretty useless if you're still using a polymer-toothed piston, so be sure to up-rate the rest of your gearbox as you improve vital parts.
Airsoft gear sets are rated by a 'ratio' value. This is essentially how many turns the motor needs to make for a complete cycle. There are plenty of airsoft gear ratio calculators available online to help you work out exactly what you need, but a rule of thumb is a smaller airsoft gear ratio will result in a higher rate of fire, at the cost of more work for the motor.
