Greartisan DC 12V 5RPM High Torque Gear Motor – All-Metal Gears, D-Shaped Output Shaft
The Greartisan DC 12V 5RPM gear motor delivers high torque at low speed thanks to its 1:401 reduction ratio. It features all-metal gears, a pure copper wire rotor, and a hardened steel D-shaped output shaft. Ideal for vending machines, pan-tilt cameras, slot machines, and automatic doors.
What can this 5 RPM gear motor be used for?
This motor suits applications requiring low-speed, high-torque motion: vending equipment, pan camera positioning, slot machines, money detectors, coin refund devices, automatic doors, peritoneal machines, and toy motors. The 5 RPM no-load speed provides precise control for such mechanisms.

All-metal gears and pure copper rotor
The all-metal gears withstand high temperatures and abrasion, supporting strong loads. The pure copper wire rotor uses precision winding to boost power. Together they ensure durability and consistent torque output.
D-shaped output shaft for secure coupling
The D-shaped shaft is made from high-hardness steel, offering good toughness and impact resistance. Its flat face prevents slipping when paired with compatible couplings or gears, improving bearing life.
Positive-negative rotation and speed adjustment
This motor supports reversible rotation by swapping the red (positive) and black (negative) leads. Speed can be reduced (not increased) using appropriate controllers. It operates quietly while delivering high torque – for example, the 10 RPM model drives up to 15 kg.
Frequently asked questions
What voltage does this motor need?
It requires 12V DC. Operating outside this voltage may reduce performance and lifespan.
Can I change the speed?
Yes, you can reduce the speed further with a suitable speed controller, but you cannot increase it beyond the rated no-load speed.
What is the output shaft size?
The D-shaped shaft is 6 mm in diameter and 14 mm long.
What is the recommended storage temperature?
Storage temperature: 0°C to 40°C, with humidity 15%–90% RH. Avoid high temperature, humidity, and corrosive gases.
