This compact micro metal gear motor features a 50:1 gear ratio and a D-profile metal output shaft, making it ideal for small robotics platforms and wheeled projects. The shaft dimensions are compatible with Pololu 42×19mm and 32×7mm wheels.
The motor comes with a PH2.0 connector for solderless wiring, and an integrated circuit provides enhanced anti-jamming capability. Two M1.6 threaded mounting holes on the brass faceplate allow direct mounting, or you can use compatible mounting brackets to enclose the exposed gears.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- 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.
- Stall torque
- The maximum twisting force a servo can produce when its output is held still and cannot move. It helps you judge whether the servo is strong enough for a robot joint, steering linkage, or other load.
- 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.
