Greartisan DC 12V 30RPM High Torque Gear Motor with All-Metal Gears and D-Shaped Output Shaft
Greartisan DC 12V 30RPM High Torque Gear Motor with All-Metal Gears and D-Shaped Output Shaft
The Greartisan DC 12V 30RPM gear motor is a compact, high-torque reduction motor built with all-metal gears and a pure copper wire rotor. It delivers a no-load speed of 30 RPM at 12 volts, with a rated torque of 6 kg·cm and a reduction ratio of 1:172. The D-shaped output shaft (6 mm diameter, 14 mm length) is made from hardened steel for durability. This motor is suitable for vending machines, pan-tilt cameras, slot machines, automatic doors, and other low-speed, high-torque applications.
What can this 30RPM gear motor be used for?
This motor is designed for devices that require slow, powerful motion. Common uses include vending equipment, coin refund mechanisms, money detectors, security cameras, automatic door openers, and toys. Its low noise and ability to handle loads (e.g., approximately 15 kg at 10 RPM) make it a practical choice for many DIY and industrial projects.

Construction and materials
The gearbox uses all-metal gears that resist high temperatures and abrasion, providing strong load capacity and long service life. The rotor core is wound with pure copper wire using precision winding technology, which helps improve motor efficiency. The output shaft is made from high-hardness steel, offering good toughness and impact resistance.
Wiring and operation notes
The motor supports forward and reverse rotation: connect the red lead to positive and black lead to negative for one direction; reversing the leads reverses the rotation. Speed can be adjusted only downward—you cannot increase it beyond 30 RPM. Operate the motor within the specified voltage and current range to avoid performance loss. Avoid prolonged stalling or blocking, as this can damage the motor. The recommended ambient temperature for use is 0°C to 70°C, and storage should be in a cool, dry place (0°C to 40°C, 15%–90% RH).
Frequently asked questions
Does this motor come with mounting screws?
No. The mounting holes are M3 threaded, but the screws are not included in the package.
Can I run this motor at a higher voltage to get more speed?
No. The motor is designed for 12V DC. Exceeding the rated voltage may damage the motor and reduce its lifespan.
What is the maximum load this motor can handle?
The rated torque is 6 kg·cm. As an example, at 10 RPM the motor can drive approximately 15 kg, but actual capacity depends on the application and gearing.
