A medium-power 12V brushed DC gearmotor with a 98.78:1 metal spur gearbox and an integrated 48 CPR quadrature encoder on the motor shaft. The encoder provides 4741.44 counts per revolution of the gearbox output shaft, enabling precise closed-loop speed and position control.

The cylindrical motor body measures just under 25mm in diameter, and the D-shaped output shaft is 4mm in diameter, extending 12.5mm from the gearbox face plate.

Specifications

  • Gear Ratio – 98.78:1
  • Voltage – 12V
  • No-Load Speed – 76 RPM
  • No-Load Current – 200mA
  • Stall Torque – 12 kg·cm (165 oz·in)
  • Stall Current – 2.1A
  • Encoder – 48 CPR quadrature (4741.44 counts/rev at output)
  • Motor Diameter – ~25mm
  • Output Shaft – 4mm D-shaped, 12.5mm length
  • Gearbox – Metal spur gears
  • Dimensions – 25D × 54L mm

Also Available

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

encoder
A device attached to a motor or shaft that reports movement, such as rotation steps or position. In a pump system, an encoder can help measure or control how much the motor has turned, which affects how repeatable the watering amount can be.
kg·cm
A torque unit often used for hobby servos, meaning how many kilograms of force the servo can hold at a 1 cm arm length. A higher kg·cm rating means the servo can move or hold heavier loads, but power supply current needs may also increase.
Torque
A twisting force that causes something to rotate, usually measured in newton-metres or kilogram-centimetres. It matters when choosing motors, servos, gears, and tools because higher torque is needed to lift heavier loads, turn larger wheels, or move mechanisms without stalling.
