36GP-555 planetary gear motor
36GP-555 brushed planetary gear motor with a rear encoder assembly, offered with 6mm or 8mm output shafts. This encoder version is separate from the plain 36GP-555 motor.
Choose your configuration
Select the rated DC voltage and no-load output speed, shaft diameter where offered, and accessory package. Actual speed decreases under load. Accessories are included only when named in the selected package.
Specifications
- 12V or 24V DC; selectable no-load speeds 11–1538RPM.
- Gearbox diameter 36mm; motor body diameter approximately 37.4mm; motor section 57mm plus 12mm encoder extension.
- Four M3 front mounting holes on a 28mm pitch circle; locating boss 22mm.
- The 8mm shaft drawing shows 20mm projection, 15mm flat and 7mm across flat. Source overview/photo also show 18mm/35mm lengths; shaft length must be confirmed for the selected version. Detailed 6mm dimensions are not supplied.
- Approximate complete motor weight 460g; supplier lists 15W.

The torque header is kgf.cm although cells use KG. Values follow the column unit, not a lifting-capacity rating. One source heading incorrectly says 32GP-31ZY; the saved listing, table and drawing identify 36GP-555.
Encoder and connection information
The supplied material confirms an encoder-equipped motor but does not specify its pulse count, encoder supply voltage or wire pinout. Confirm those details for this version before connecting it. Do not assume the wiring or pulse count of another motor model. Reverse only identified motor-power leads; never reverse encoder supply polarity.
Wiring and operation
Use a DC supply matching the selected voltage. Never connect the motor directly to household AC. Reverse rotation by swapping the motor leads or using a compatible reversing controller. A suitable PWM controller can adjust speed; lowering speed may reduce available torque. Avoid overload and stalled operation.
Supplier data notes
Dimensions and weights are approximate. Power, current, noise, temperature and continuous-duty figures are supplier-listed; measurement conditions are not fully specified. Where power and current do not agree, confirm actual supply demand rather than assuming the listed wattage is verified electrical input power. Stall torque is a limit, not a continuous operating rating. No waterproof rating is supplied.
Package contents
One motor in the selected configuration, plus only the accessories named in the Package option. Power supply and speed controller are not included with Motor Only. Plug type and full controller ratings are not specified.
