Tascam 122 MK3 / 112 MK2 C-Gear (9278377600) – Nylon (PP-0254)
Does your Tascam deck struggle with winding, is the mechanism jamming, or do you hear a clicking sound?
In many legendary Tascam models, the original white gear (the Control Gear or C-Gear) is the weak link. After several decades, the original plastic becomes brittle and develops hairline cracks. This causes the gear to lose its grip on the shaft or completely disrupt the timing of the transport mechanism.
This replacement C-Gear is the durable solution to get your high-end audio equipment back in top condition.
Why choose this part?
Industrial Grade Nylon: Unlike standard 3D prints (PLA/PETG) or the brittle original, we manufacture this part from high-grade Nylon. This material is extremely wear-resistant, tough, and resistant to the greases and heat found within the transport mechanism.
Perfect Fit: Precision-engineered according to the original specifications (Part No. 9278377600). This guarantees quiet and smooth operation of your deck.
Upgrade over the Original: Our Nylon version is designed to better handle the stresses on the shaft, making the chance of future cracks virtually zero.
Compatible with the following models:
Tascam 122 MKIII / 122 MK3
Tascam 112 MKII / 112 MK2
Tascam 112R MKII
Tascam 464 Portastudio
Symptoms of a faulty C-Gear:
The head assembly no longer rises or gets stuck halfway.
The transport does not respond to ‘Play’, ‘FF’, or ‘Rewind’.
A rattling or clicking sound is heard as soon as the deck is powered on.
Specifications & Delivery:

Expert Installation Tip: Replacing the C-Gear is an essential step for any overhaul. Thoroughly clean the shaft during assembly and apply a small amount of acid-free grease (such as Super Lube) to the gear teeth for optimal lifespan and whisper-quiet operation.
