37GB 12V High Torque Gear Motor - 400 RPM
VAT inclusive; Computed calculations added locally.
Overview
The 37GB-555 12V High Torque Gear Motor - 400 RPM is a compact and versatile geared DC motor for projects that require controlled rotational movement and higher torque. Its integrated gearbox reduces the motor's rotational speed while increasing torque output, making it suitable for driving mechanical loads in robotics and automation systems.
With a 12V DC operating voltage and 400 RPM speed, this motor can be integrated into a wide range of battery-powered and DC-powered projects. The D-type output shaft provides a secure mounting interface for wheels, pulleys, gears, couplers, and other mechanical components.
The motor features a metal body and gear-reduction construction for improved durability in regular project use. Its compact form factor makes it a practical choice for mobile robots, automated mechanisms, conveyor systems, educational projects, and custom DIY machinery.

Product Technical Information
Technical Details
The 37GB-555 12V High Torque Gear Motor is designed for applications where a standard DC motor does not provide sufficient torque or controlled output speed. The built-in gearbox converts the motor's high-speed rotation into a slower, higher-torque output suitable for mechanical movement.
Its 400 RPM output speed provides a useful balance between speed and torque for many robotics and automation applications. The motor can be controlled using suitable motor drivers, H-bridge circuits, PWM controllers, or microcontroller-based control systems.
The D-type shaft allows easy attachment of compatible mechanical components, while the metal construction provides a robust housing for regular use in DIY and robotics projects.

How to Use
- Connect the motor to an appropriate DC motor driver or controller.
- Use a suitable 12V DC power source for normal operation.
- Attach a compatible wheel, gear, pulley, or coupler to the D-type shaft.
- Use a motor driver or H-bridge when direction control is required.
- PWM control can be used with a suitable driver to adjust the motor's effective speed.
- Ensure the mechanical load is within the motor's torque and current capabilities.
Important Notes
- The motor is specified for 12V DC operation; the stated 6V–24V range should be treated as an operational range rather than a guarantee of identical performance throughout that range.
- Actual RPM and current consumption vary with supply voltage and mechanical load.
- The stated 1–5A current draw depends on load and operating conditions.
- Do not connect the motor directly to a microcontroller GPIO pin. Use an appropriate motor driver or switching circuit.
- A suitable power supply should be capable of handling the motor's startup and higher-load current.
- Excessive mechanical load can cause increased current consumption and motor heating.
- Product dimensions and appearance may vary slightly between batches.
- Please allow approximately 5% measuring deviation due to manual measurement.
- Product images are for illustrative purposes only and may differ from the actual product.
Package Includes
- 1 × 37GB 12V High Torque Gear Motor - 400 RPM
