High Torque Self-Locking Worm Gear DC Motor with Encoder – 12V, 215RPM

Description

The High Torque Gearmotor Self-Locking Worm Gear Motor with Encoder – 12V, 215RPM is a compact yet powerful DC motor designed for demanding applications requiring high torque, precise speed control, and resistance to back-driving.

This motor combines a 12V brushed DC motor with a robust worm-and-wheel gearbox, ensuring a reliable self-locking function that prevents the output shaft from being rotated when power is off. The gearbox is built with large-pitch gears, offering exceptional durability and the ability to handle higher torque loads compared to standard low-cost gearboxes.

Equipped with a magnetic hall sensor encoder (2 channels, 11PPR), the motor provides accurate feedback for position and speed control. The 8mm diameter D-shaped output shaft, supported by dual ball bearings, allows direct mounting of larger loads without compromising stability or performance.

Both 12V and 24V motor options are available, offering flexibility for a wide range of engineering, robotics, and automation projects. The right-angle worm gear design makes this motor ideal for installations in tight spaces where planetary or spur gear motors cannot fit.

The motor’s self-locking worm gear mechanism makes it especially useful for DIY builds, robotics, special effects, and automation systems, where maintaining position without constant power is critical.
