A small adapter board that solders onto the back of micro metal gearmotors, adding a male 0.1″ push header for tool-free connections. Once attached, the motor can be plugged directly into breadboards or female headers without any further soldering — ideal for workshops, classrooms, and rapid prototyping.

Each shim includes a built-in decoupling capacitor at the motor terminals to reduce electrical noise.

Key Features

  • Push Header Connection – Male 0.1″ header for solderless motor hookup after initial installation
  • Onboard Decoupling Capacitor – Reduces motor noise at the terminals
  • Compact Shim Design – Mounts directly to the back of micro metal gearmotors
  • Workshop Friendly – Makes motors easy to use for beginners and children

Ideal For

  • Making micro metal gearmotors breadboard-compatible
  • Education workshops and classroom activities
  • Rapid prototyping with plug-in motor connections

Package Contents

  • 5× Micro Metal Gearmotor Push Header Shims

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

Headers
Rows of connector contacts on a fixed pitch (commonly 2.54 mm) used to link a board to a breadboard, jumper wires, or another board. They come as male pin headers and female socket headers; when a module ships with pre-soldered headers it can be used straight away, whereas bare pads require soldering the pins yourself.
