This hybrid bipolar stepping motor has a 1.8° step angle (200 steps/revolution). Each phase draws 500 mA at 10 V, allowing for a holding torque of 1000 g-cm (14 oz-in).
The motor has four color-coded wires terminated with bare leads: black and green connect to one coil; red and blue connect to the other. It can be controlled by a pair of suitable H-bridges (one for each coil), but we recommend using a bipolar stepper motor driver.
The 5mm universal mounting hub can be used to mount objects on the stepper motor’s 5mm-diameter output shaft.

Dimensions
The following diagram shows the stepper motor dimensions in mm. The dimension labeled “length” is 28 mm. The output shaft has a length of 21 mm and a diameter of 5 mm. Though not shown in the diagram, the output is a D-shaft with a section that is flattened by 0.5 mm.
Stepper Motor Applications
Stepper motors are generally used in a variety of applications where precise position control is desirable and the cost or complexity of a feedback control system is unwarranted. Here are a few applications where stepper motors are often found:
- Printers
- CNC machines
- 3D printer/prototyping machines
- Laser cutters
- Pick and place machines
- Linear actuators
- Hard drives
