12V N20 Mini Metal Gear Motor

Compact N20 geared motor for robotics

This N20 mini gear motor is listed for 12V DC operation with metal gearing. Its compact format provides a drive option for a suitably designed small robot, model mechanism or other project where space is limited.

The N20 name describes a motor family, not one universal speed or torque specification. Select the actual version by its verified output and mechanical details before choosing a wheel, bracket or control circuit.

Confirm speed, load and fit

• Listed supply: 12V DC.
• Format: N20 mini geared motor.
• Gearing: metal gearbox described.
• Output RPM and gear ratio: not verified.
• Torque, running current and stall current: confirm for the supplied unit.
• Shaft dimensions and mounting: check before assembly.

A numerical high-torque rating, constant-speed control, encoder, wheel or bracket is not established as included. Do not transfer specifications from a similar-looking N20 motor with another gear ratio.

Choose a suitable driver and power source

A controller can provide commands to a compatible motor driver, but its signal pin cannot supply the motor’s power. Check the driver voltage range and its ability to handle the actual startup and stall current, not just the unloaded current.

Use suitable wiring and protection, check polarity and direction in a controlled test, and avoid prolonged stalls. Confirm the allowed duty cycle and load rather than assuming continuous operation at any mechanical resistance.

Frequently asked questions

What RPM does this version provide?

The supplied version’s output speed is not verified in the current product information.

Will every N20 wheel or bracket fit?

No universal fit is guaranteed. Compare the actual shaft and mounting dimensions.

Can it run directly from an Arduino pin?

No. Use an appropriately rated driver and motor power source.
