This high-ratio gearmotor delivers very low speed with high torque, making it ideal for precision robotics, slow-motion mechanisms, and applications requiring fine positional control.\n\nAll micro metal gearmotors in this range share the same physical dimensions, so different gear ratios can be swapped interchangeably without modifying your mechanical design.\n\nSpecifications (1006:1 Ratio @ 6 V)\n\n\nSpeed – 14.2 ±10% RPM\n\nFree-Run Current – 28 mA (56 mA max)\n\nStall Torque – 5.3 kg·cm (0.52 N·m)\n\nOutput Shaft – 3 mm diameter, D-shaped, 9 mm long\n\nBack Shaft – 1 mm diameter, 4.5 mm long (for optical encoders)\n\nOperating Voltage – 6 V DC\n\n\nKey Features\n\n\n1006:1 Gear Ratio – Very high reduction for slow, high-torque operation\n\nMetal Gearbox – Durable metal gears for long service life\n\nExtended Back Shaft – 4.5 mm rear shaft for mounting optical encoder wheels\n\nInterchangeable Form Factor – Same dimensions as all micro metal gearmotors in this series\n\nD-Shaped Output Shaft – Prevents wheel slippage\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nPrecision robotics and slow-motion mechanisms\nEncoder-equipped closed-loop drive systems\nSmall mobile robots and tracked vehicles\nAutomated mechanisms requiring high torque at low speed\n\n\nResources\n\n1006:1 Gearmotor Datasheet (PDF)\n","vendor":"Pimoroni","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":6897,"title":"Default Title","sku":"PI-COM0802","price":10.27,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
