Shorty Hall Effect Cam/Crank/Gear/Speed Sensor

Compact size. Clean signal. Endless motorsport use.

The 24x Racing Shorty Hall Effect Cam / Crank / Gear / Speed Sensor is a compact, high-performance digital Hall-effect sensor built for racers, builders, and fabricators who need a reliable signal in tight spaces. Whether you're setting up a cam sync, crank trigger, gear tooth pickup, wheel speed, driveshaft speed, or another custom RPM/speed application, this sensor gives you the flexibility to use one compact solution across multiple systems.

What makes this sensor especially valuable is its compact short-body design. With an overall length of just 30mm / 1.18 inches, it is a much better choice when space is limited around trigger wheels, engine covers, transmission cases, brackets, or fabricated race car setups. It uses a nickel-plated brass body, includes a 6-foot cable for easier routing in custom installations, and features a rear LED light to simplify setup, alignment, and quick diagnostics.

Built for harsh environments, this sensor is IP67 waterproof and dustproof and uses a built-in smart chip to help deliver clean, consistent performance. It combines short-circuit protection with a sealed, motorsport-friendly design intended to maintain signal stability in demanding operating conditions.

With a maximum measurement speed of 15,000 RPM, this sensor is ready for serious high-RPM use. That makes it a strong choice for race cars, standalone ECU setups, and high-performance builds where dependable signal quality is critical.

Why run it?

When you’re building a serious car, sensor reliability matters. Bad signal quality can create sync issues, false readings, and wasted time chasing electrical problems. A compact Hall-effect sensor like this gives you a clean digital solution for high-speed rotating targets while fitting in places where larger sensors can create major installation challenges in tight engine bays and compact mounting locations.

This type of Hall-effect sensor is ideal for automotive speed and position sensing where quick response, stable signal output, and reliable operation are critical.
