You want to ensure that you consider the specifications of the gear box and motor and ensure they meet your requirements. In addition, you want to look at how the manufacturer rates the power of the gear motor

1. What to Look For in 12v DC Gear Motors
What Do You Need?
There are a number of factors to consider when purchasing 12v dc
gear motors. Of course you need to ensure that the motor you
choose is designed for the job. A gear motor has a gear reduction
system or gearbox built into the motor. The advantage to using a
gear motor is that the driving shaft may be coupled directly to the
driver’s shaft. In addition to ensuring that the gearbox is high-
quality and durable, you also want to ensure that the motor:
• Can handle the work you need done, will operate at the right
speed and use the right amount of power for the job
• Is powered from the right power source. Purchasing the wrong
type of motor may mean you need to replace your power
source
• Can work within the conditions. You may need to use the
motor for long periods of time without it overheating, or use it
in less than ideal weather conditions. Make sure the gear
motor you choose can handle the conditions and strain you’ll
put it under.
• Has the right operating power
• Has the right amount of power to perform the job

2. Cut the Costs
Cost is always an important consideration of any purchase. A great
way to cut costs while still purchasing a high-quality, reliable and
durable 12v dc gear motor is to contact a local distributor. Ideally,
you want to find a gear motor with the specifications you need for
an affordable price. The best approach is to ask your local
distributor for help. Give them the specifications you’re looking for
(nominal current, nominal speed, continuous torque and breakaway
torque). Distributors can find products that meet your specific
requirements and since they sell through the aftermarket they can
also find you the best price. Of course you need to do your due
diligence and research the 12v gear motor you’re looking for. Once
you know what you want you should shop around and do a number
of price comparisons. Take the results of your search to your local
distributor to see if they can offer a better deal.
Know the Specifics
You want to ensure that you consider the specifications of the gear
box and motor and ensure they meet your requirements. In
addition, you want to look at how the manufacturer rates the power
of the gear motor (as continuous or equivalent). Remember to
always ensure you have an adequate power supply.
Find a Local Distributor
Find a distributor of 12v dc gear motors. Distributors can often offer
the parts you need at more affordable prices than the manufacturer.
A knowledgeable distributor will have up-to-date information on
the latest specification changes and product enhancements and will
be able to answer your questions and address your concerns.
