Overview

These tiny brushed DC gearmotors are available in a wide range of gear ratios—from 5:1 up to 1000:1—and with five different motors: high-power 6 V and 12 V motors with long-life carbon brushes (HPCB), and high-power (HP), medium power (MP), and low power (LP) 6 V motors with shorter-life precious metal brushes. The 6 V and 12 V HPCB motors offer the same performance at their respective nominal voltages, just with the 12 V motor drawing half the current of the 6 V motor. The 6 V HPCB and 6 V HP motors are identical except for their brushes, which only affect the lifetime of the motor.

The HPCB versions (shown on the left in the picture below) can be differentiated from versions with precious metal brushes (shown on the right) by their copper-colored terminals. Note that the HPCB terminals are 0.5 mm wider than those on the other micro metal gearmotor versions (2 mm vs. 1.5 mm), and they are about 1 mm closer together (6 mm vs. 7 mm).

 

 

Versions of these gearmotors are also available with an additional 1 mm-diameter output shaft that protrudes from the rear of the motor. This 4.5 mm-long rear shaft rotates at the same speed as the input to the gearbox and offers a way to add an encoder, such as our encoders for micro metal gearmotors (see the picture on the right), to provide motor speed or position feedback.

With the exception of the 1000:1 gear ratio versions, all of the micro metal gearmotors have the same physical dimensions, so one version can be easily swapped for another if your design requirements change.

Gearmotor Dimensions

In terms of size, these gearmotors are very similar to Sanyo’s popular 12 mm NA4S DC gearmotors, and gearmotors with this form factor are occasionally referred to as N20 motors. The versions with carbon brushes (HPCB) have slightly different terminal and end-cap dimensions than the versions with precious metal brushes, but all of the other dimensions are identical.

Dog pee pad tray holder.
Size: Small, Size: Small
I purchased this pre pad holder because my tiny pup would shred into a million pieces the pee pads I placed on the floor. This is a sturdy, easy to use and clean produce. You just lift up the grief top tray, add a pee pad and close... all done. If you get pads that are a bit too large, no oroblem, you can easily find them to fit into the tray. Quick clean up are with a wet wipes. For an occasional better clean... the whole thing can be washed in a bath yup or outside with a garden hose. Best of all, my pup seems to know exactly what to do with this tray! I would definitive comment and buy again. Actually, I have recommended it to several people.

Keeps the wee wee pads securely snapped in so puppy won't run away and play with them
Size: Small
My maltese puppy would run away and play with the wee wee pads if they weren't secreted inside a holder like this that straps them down. He uses the wee wee pads in this holder very well. I would give this five stars, but my puppy likes another kind of wee wee pad holder that has a plastic grate over it just a tiny bit more. I bought two different kinds of wee wee pad holders to keep at different locations to see what he liked to use. He uses both, but prefers the grated one just a little more. Even so, this is a quality wee wee pad holder and the pads snap in so easily and securely. Great purchase.
