Mini Metal DC Geared Motor (6V, 375RPM, 0.5kg.cm)

The Mini Metal DC Geared Motor (6V, 375RPM, 0.5kg.cm) combines a compact brushed DC motor with an integrated 1:35 metal reduction gearbox. Delivering dependable torque and smooth rotation in a lightweight 25g footprint, it is an ideal drive module for educational robotics, compact mobile platforms, and DIY automation prototypes.

Compact form factor and dimensions

Measuring 12 x 13-R15.5 x 38 mm without the shaft, this slim gearmotor fits easily into space-constrained builds. Its low weight reduces mechanical strain on lightweight robotic chassis and experimental mechanisms.

Durable metal reduction gearbox

An all-metal 1:35 reduction gear train provides enhanced wear resistance and continuous motion reliability compared with plastic gears. It delivers a 375 RPM no-load speed and up to 0.5 kg.cm of stall torque at 6V.

Secure D-shaped output shaft

The 3 mm diameter, 10 mm long D-profile shaft prevents slippage when mounted to compatible wheels, hubs, and mechanical linkages. This flat-sided interface ensures positive torque transmission and simple alignment in drive assemblies.

Efficient low-noise operation

Supporting bidirectional rotation, the motor draws 90 mA or less under no load and draws up to 950 mA at stall. Its balanced internal construction delivers stable output speeds with minimal acoustic disturbance and vibration.

Safe operation and soldering guidelines

To prevent damage to internal parts, operate within rated voltage limits and avoid prolonged motor stalling. When soldering terminal connections at 340 °C ± 40 °C, limit heating time to under 3 seconds.
