This gearmotor is a miniature low-power, 6 V brushed DC motor with a 379.17:1 metal gearbox. This version has stainless steel gearbox plates instead of the standard brass ones for increased durability and resistance to wear from radial loads. The gearmotor has a cross section of 10 × 12 mm, and the D-shaped gearbox output shaft is 9 mm long and 3 mm in diameter.
Key specifications:
| voltage | no-load performance | stall extrapolation |

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.
Note: The gearbox on the 1000:1 and 1000:1 HP micro metal gearmotors is 12.5 mm long. All of the other micro metal gearmotors have 9mm-long gearboxes, as shown in the above dimension diagram.
