Dayton

Dayton 5LAF9 DC Gearmotor 12 V 150 RPM 63 in-lb

SKU CH-4905-WKS18

Right-angle DC gearmotor delivers 150 RPM and 63 in-lb torque from a 12 V supply with a 10:1 ratio

  • Right-angle shaft fits tight spaces
  • 12 V DC power suits mobile equipment
  • 150 RPM output speed for controlled motion
  • 63 in-lb torque handles heavy loads
  • 175 lb overhung load capacity supports radial force

Right-Angle 12 V DC Gearmotor

The Dayton 5LAF9 is a permanent-magnet DC gearmotor rated for 12 V operation and a nameplate speed of 150 RPM. Its right-angle shaft orientation and 10:1 gear ratio suit compact machinery, conveyors and automation projects that need controlled motion in limited space. The 5/8 in output shaft and any-angle mounting give builders flexibility when integrating the unit into new or existing equipment.

Thermals noise and power draw

A totally enclosed non-ventilated motor enclosure contains heat and keeps contaminants out during continuous duty. The motor draws power at 12 V DC with an input rating of 1/8 hp, so current remains modest and wiring stays simple. Ball bearings on the motor side and roller bearings on the case side reduce friction, helping the unit run quietly while delivering up to 63 in-lb of torque.

Overhung load capacity and rotation control

The gearmotor handles an overhung load of 175 lb on the output shaft, allowing direct coupling to pulleys, sprockets or light-duty wheels without extra support bearings. Reversible CW/CCW rotation lets the same unit drive bidirectional actuators or reversible conveyors. No bundled software or accessories are included; the mechanical interface is the only integration point.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Dayton 5LAF9 gearmotor and what step is often missed?

Mount it at any angle using the right-angle output shaft; the step people skip is verifying the 5/8 in shaft aligns with the driven load before tightening, and confirming the 12 V DC supply polarity for CW/CCW rotation.

What maintenance or replacement will the Dayton 5LAF9 need later?

The ball bearing on the motor and roller bearing on the case require periodic lubrication checks; plan to replace the gear set if backlash grows beyond the 10:1 ratio tolerance under the 63 in-lb torque rating.

What limit appears first when the Dayton 5LAF9 runs continuously at full load?

The 175 lb overhung load capacity on the output shaft is the first constraint; exceeding it before the 1/8 hp motor overheats will cause premature bearing wear.
