12V/0.2Kg-cm/1080RPM 3.7:1 DC Gear Motor w/ Encoder

Product Description

The 3261E is a 12 volt gear motor, generating 0.24 Kg-cm of torque at 1080 RPM. It’s a small, inexpensive motor suitable for low torque, high speed applications. This motor is quite compact considering the amout of power it can output.

This motor comes equipped with an E4P US Digital Encoder, which keeps track of the motor’s rotation, allowing you to control your motor precisely.

The planetary gearbox on this motor is more sophisticated than a typical spur gearbox and will provide greater efficiency, higher torque, and quieter motor operation.
