This gearmotor is a miniature (1.42" x 0.39" x 0.47"), high-quality, high-power motor with 298:1 metal gearbox, similar to Sanyo’s popular 12 mm gearmotors. These units have a 0.365"-long, D-shaped output shaft.
Gearmotor Dimensions:
This motor has a long (0.365" or 9.27 mm, not 8mm as shown in the drawing below), D-shaped metal output shaft that matches the Solarbotics RW2 rubber wheel and the Pololu 42×19 mm wheel. The brass faceplate has two mounting holes threaded for M1.6 screws (1.6 mm diameter, 0.35 mm thread pitch), or you can use our mounting bracket or extended mounting bracket, which are specifically designed to securely mount the gearmotor while enclosing the exposed gears.

These motors are intended for use at 6 V. In general, these kinds of motors can run at voltages above and below this nominal voltage, so they should comfortably operate in the 3 – 9 V range. Lower voltages might not be practical, and higher voltages could start negatively affecting the life of the motor.
