12 volt D.C. MOTOR permanent magnet powerful magnets


 You are bidding on one NEW 3 hp Kirby™ electric motor\

  • Operates on standard 12 Volt Lead Automotive battery
  • Operates on any 100ah X 12 Volt Lithium-ion battery
  • Series wound - No magnets inside - 
  • Super High Torque type motor
  • Super Heavy Duty Build - Industrial bearings!
  • Lasts for decades of full time duty cycles
  • Durable long lasting type Run-Time-Factor #135
  • Powerful PUSH/PULL high torque design.

165 Amps run (240A Peak) 2700 RPM at full load / 8000 RPM 

at free spin. Extra heavy duty aluminum cooling plate.

Rule #1: DC motors do not have a set RPM like AC motors due since they are not powered by a SineWave like 50 or 60 cycles for instance which locks the rotations to a specific RPM range. Therefor a DC motor has a rather large RPM range dependent on LOAD. 

The higher the work load the slower it turns BUT the more torque is produced to keep your project Moving!

2700 RPM at peak load (working)8000 RPM unloaded at full rated battery voltage.

Use a 120 VDC rated fuse or breaker to keep your motor safe. If breaker snaps just push to reset and your back in business :) (If you do not use a breaker you will be 'dead in the water" with a fused motor that will take hours to replace) 

 It is so easy to add a $15.00 breaker just to be safe that you really should do it.


THIS MOTOR IS BUILT RIGHT.  VERY HIGH QUALITY AND SOLID DESIGN.
