Brushed DC Gear Motor (6/12/24 V) — compact, durable drive solution for DIY projects and small appliances Key benefits Reliable power for small mechanical systems: provides steady brushed DC drive at 6 V, 12 V or 24 V to run actuators, gear trains, and driven loads without complex control. Long-lasting performance under load: all-metal gears resist heat and wear, extending service life and protecting the motor gearbox in continuous or intermittent operation. Easy integration: standard 4 mm shaft and compact 25 mm diameter body make mounting and coupling to common hobby or appliance components straightforward. What this motor solves Reduces replacement and maintenance frequency by using metal gears that withstand abrasion and higher operating temperatures. Simplifies design by offering a ready-made geared output that handles higher torque than a bare motor shaft. Fits a wide range of devices where size, durability, and predictable electrical draw matter. Key specifications Product type: Brushed DC motor with metal gearbox Rated voltage options: 6 V, 12 V, 24 V Rated current (no-load/typical): 6 V → 0.5 A, 12 V → 0.3 A, 24 V → 0.16 A Gear material: All-metal gears (high temperature and abrasion resistant) Outside diameter: 25 mm Output shaft diameter: 4 mm Shaft length: 12 mm Weight: approximately 100 g Important attributes Function: geared DC drive for rotation and actuation in small machines and models Compatibility: suitable for DIY engines, electric locks, robot models, curtains, barbecue grills, ovens, washers, waste disposal machines, coffee machines, printing machines, and other household appliances Material and durability: metal gearbox construction for improved load capacity and thermal resistance compared with plastic-geared alternatives Size and mounting: compact 25 mm diameter housing with a 4 mm × 12 mm shaft for straightforward mechanical connection Performance: low rated current at higher voltages enables efficient operation in battery or mains-powered applications Typical use scenarios Robot model drivetrain: provide reliable geared torque for mobile robots or articulated arms where compact size and robust gears reduce maintenance. Automated curtain or lock actuator: convert rotary motion into controlled linear or latch action for home automation; metal gears ensure consistent performance through frequent cycles. Small appliance drive: power rotating elements in coffee machines, food disposers, or compact washing components where space is limited but mechanical durability is required.
