DC Motor 260 1.5V-6V with Alligator Clips Wire Leads

Step up your motor game with the Type 260 DC motor — the bigger, faster sibling of the popular 130. This workhorse of the hobby electronics world spins up to an impressive 10,000 RPM at 6V, making it an excellent choice for projects that demand a little more torque and a lot more excitement. It arrives ready to run with pre-soldered 8 inch (20.3 cm) red and black wire leads terminated in color-coded alligator clips, so connecting it to a battery pack, solar panel, or power supply is as simple as clip and go — no soldering iron, no fuss, no delay. Whether you're powering a classroom wind energy demo, a science fair contraption, or a custom robotics build, the 260 delivers the muscle to make it move.

The fully cylindrical form factor of the 260 sets it apart from the flat-sided 130, making it easy to mount in round bores or custom 3D-printed brackets. Its optimum operating range of 3V–6V DC means it pairs beautifully with two or four AA batteries, a standard USB power bank, or a small solar cell — ideal for renewable energy experiments and open-ended engineering challenges. With a 2 mm (0.079 in) steel shaft ready to accept gears, pulleys, propellers, and wheels, the possibilities are only limited by your imagination. Stock up a classroom set and watch your students discover firsthand how voltage, current, and rotational speed are beautifully, inescapably linked.
