## Description

A 1000:1 micro metal gearmotor from Pololu's popular N20-size range, featuring a high-power (HP) 6V brushed DC motor with precious metal brushes. With the highest gear ratio available in this series, it delivers extremely low output speeds and very high torque relative to its tiny size. At 6V with no load, the output shaft turns at approximately 31 RPM, and speeds as low as ~2.5 RPM can be achieved at 0.5V. The 1000:1 version is slightly longer than other ratios in the range due to the additional gear stage. Key Features 1000:1 Gear Ratio – Extremely low speed with very high torque output High-Power (HP) Motor – 1.6A stall current for maximum performance Precious Metal Brushes – Low electrical noise; terminal width 1.5mm, spacing 7mm N20 Form Factor – Compatible with a wide range of wheels, brackets, and encoders All-Metal Gearbox – Durable spur gears for sustained operation Specifications Gear Ratio – 1000:1 (exact: ~986.41:1) Nominal Voltage – 6V No-Load Speed – 31 RPM @ 6V No-Load Current – 0.07A Stall Current – 1.6A Stall Torque – 12 kg·cm (170 oz·in) Motor Type – Brushed DC, high-power (HP), precious metal brushes Output Shaft – 3mm diameter, D-shaped Warning: The 1000:1 gearbox can generate enough torque to damage itself. Avoid stalling the motor. The recommended upper limit for instantaneous torque is 2.5 kg·cm (35 oz·in). Keep operating current at 25% or less of stall current to maximise motor life. Ideal For Applications requiring very slow, controlled rotation High-torque mechanisms in small form factors Robotics and automation projects Pan/tilt mechanisms and slow actuators Resources Micro Metal Gearmotor Datasheet (PDF) Gearmotor Dimensions Drawing (PDF)
