These TT All-Metal Gear Motors are a low cost and reliable way to get your projects moving. They look a lot like our yellow all-plastic gear motors but these have all of the motor gears machined from steel, so they won't strip as easily, and they're twice as slow (and twice as powerful) given their lower gearbox ratio of 1:90. These motors are good for robots where strength is more important than speed. The metal gears also mean they're louder when running.
You can power these motors with 3VDC up to 6VDC, they'll of course go a little faster at the higher voltages. The metal shaft features a M3 threaded hole. These motors do not come with wires attached, so you'll need to solder wires on yourself.
These motors have no built-in encoders, speed control or positional feedback. There will be variation from motor to motor, so a separate feedback system is required if you need precision movement.
We have a range of wheels, add-ons and accessories for these motors.
