FingerTech 42T NightWing Weapon Pulley

FingerTech 42T NightWing Weapon Pulley

The FingerTech 42T NightWing Weapon Pulley is the large driven pulley at the heart of the NightWing undercutter weapon system — machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with a threaded 5/16-24 UNF bore and steel flanges for reliable, no-slip belt drive. It’s the right spare to have in your pit bag, and a solid foundation for custom 3lb undercutter builds. Pairs with the FingerTech 30T motor pulley and FingerTech 67T timing belt. Note: not compatible with standard FingerTech setscrew-mount pulleys.

The NightWing Weapon Pulley

The FingerTech 42T NightWing Weapon Pulley is the large driven pulley in the NightWing undercutter weapon system — the component that takes belt drive from the F4006 weapon motor and transfers it to the weapon disc. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with steel flanges, it’s built for the shock loads and high belt tension that come with a 10in spinning disc at competition speeds.

Threaded Bore — Purpose-Built for the NightWing

The key detail on this pulley is the 5/16-24 UNF threaded bore — purpose-built for the NightWing undercutter weapon assembly. This is not a standard setscrew-mount pulley; the threaded bore is what secures the weapon disc assembly in the NightWing frame. Not compatible with standard FingerTech setscrew-mount pulleys.

The Full Weapon Drive System

This pulley is part of a complete belt-driven weapon chain. The FingerTech 30T motor pulley mounts to the F4006 rotor; the FingerTech 67T timing belt connects the two; this 42T pulley drives the weapon disc. The 30T:42T ratio gives you the right balance of spin-up speed and top-end weapon velocity for the NightWing’s 10in disc.

Stock a Spare

Pulleys take indirect hits in the NightWing’s open undercutter geometry. Having a spare 42T pulley alongside a spare 67T belt means you can recover from a weapon system hit at an event without sitting out. It’s a cheap insurance policy for a competition robot.

Features
  • Purpose-built for the NightWing undercutter weapon system — the large driven pulley in the weapon belt drive
  • 5/16-24 UNF threaded bore — secures the weapon disc assembly in the NightWing frame
  • 6061-T6 aluminum with steel flanges — handles the shock loads of a 10in spinning disc at competition speeds
  • 42T S3M profile — 30T:42T ratio with the F4006 motor pulley delivers the right weapon spin-up and top speed for the NightWing
  • Fits all 4mm-wide S3M belts — including the FingerTech 67T timing belt used in the NightWing kit
  • 1.09oz (31.0g) — substantial but purpose-sized for the weapon assembly
  • Not compatible with standard FingerTech setscrew-mount pulleys

What is this pulley used for?

This is the large driven pulley in the NightWing undercutter weapon system. It sits at the weapon disc end of the belt drive, transferring power from the F4006 weapon motor via the FingerTech 67T timing belt to spin the weapon disc.

Why does this pulley have a threaded bore instead of a setscrew?

The 5/16-24 UNF threaded bore is specific to the NightWing undercutter weapon assembly — it's how the weapon disc assembly is secured in the frame. Standard FingerTech setscrew-mount pulleys use a different bore design and are not interchangeable with this one.

What belt does this pulley use?

The NightWing kit uses the FingerTech 67T timing belt. This pulley is compatible with any 4mm-wide S3M belt, but the 67T is the correct length for the NightWing weapon drive geometry.

Should I keep a spare?

Yes — the NightWing's open undercutter geometry means the weapon system can take indirect hits. A spare 42T pulley alongside a spare 67T belt covers the most likely weapon system failures at an event.
