This is what makes the Filastruder do what it does. Using the power of science, this little motor turns the whole operation into a filament-making machine. This motor produces filament almost twice as fast as the motor included with the Kickstarter kits, and is a direct drop-in replacement.

  • 12vDC
  • 8RPM
  • 15.6 N-m torque

It should be fused or otherwise protected against stall. Use with caution. You can grab a stall protection board here, it will limit the current to prevent damage to the machine and allow for use with the stock power supply.
