High Torque 5 RPM Conveyor and Rotisserie Gear Motor 12V DC Reversible + Coupling

Due to its low speed and 12vdc features, this motor is ideal for a mobile rotisserie application. Other applications include display turntable, conveyor system, sign display, motorized fishing reel, and more.  For the rotisserie application, be sure to set up bearings specifically to hold up the weight of the meat so the motor is only to rotate the meat with minimum axial and radial loads. Also, flexible couplings are highly recommended for a direct-drive set up. Due to the nature of a BBQ rotisserie's high temperature environment, make sure the motor is placed far enough from the heat to prevent failures of the motor's mechanical or electrical components. A fire wall should be considered to protect the motor. This motor was tested with a 50kg (110lb) of weight with its 5rpm speed at ease. The 50kg (110lb) weight is to simulate a 50kg (110lb) hog/pig that is traditionally roasted with an outdoor BBQ rotisserie set up. Thanks to its 12vdc motor, it is possible to run this motor with a 12v battery.  This is a 12v dc, permanent magnet gear motor with a reversible, on/off, DPDT switch. Motor's speed is 5 RPM. Rotation is reversible by a provided DPDT switch.

12VDC Gear Motor: 42 N-m (31 ft-lb) torque at 5 RPM. Permanent magnet stator. Overall envelope less shaft dimensions are 8.5 inches by 4.6 inches by 4.3 inches. Shaft dimensions are 15mm diameter by 50mm (2.0 inches) of length. The shaft is a D-shaft (shaft with a flat). Motor control is very simple. A center-off DPDT switch is included so the user simply leave the toggle at its center position for off, flip the toggle to one side for forward, and flip the toggle to other side for reverse. 

This motor is fitted with a coupling so all the user has to do is to drill a straight pin hole, slightly larger than 0.25" (6.35mm), across either a shaft, a bar, or a pipe.  A 0.25" diameter, quick-release pin is designed to easily secure the shaft/bar/tube.  The coupling is designed to fit either a 1" OD structural tube, 1" diameter shaft, 7/8" hexagonal bar, or 25mm OD shaft or pipe. 

This motor is a 12v dc motor so a 12v dc battery or a 12v dc power supply will be able to power this unit.
