These plastic mounting brackets allow you to easily and securely mount the ubiquitous 10 mm × 12 mm × 26 mm metal gearhead motors first popularized by Sanyo’s 12GN series (e.g. NA1S…NA3S), such as our micro metal gearmotors.

This extended version of the bracket is designed to allow a portion of the motor to fit within the hub of a larger wheel, such as our Pololu Wheel 42×19mm. We also offer a quadrature encoder that works with this bracket and the 42×19mm wheel to provide feedback about wheel rotation direction and speed. The encoder can be purchased as an individual unit or as part of an encoder set that includes two encoders, a pair of extended brackets, and a pair of 42×19mm wheels—just pick the particular micro metal gearmotor that best suits your application and you have a solution for closed-loop motor control.
