Metal reduction gears and a D-shaft suit wheel drives; calculate required torque and duty cycle.
Engineering inferenceHigher no-load speed and extrapolated stall torque trade off against a larger driver-current requirement.
Engineering inferenceNo-load speed, rated performance and stall limits describe different operating points. A stall specification is not a continuous operating rating.
Stall torque/current cannot be used as continuous ratings. Body dimensions exclude 12.5 mm projecting shaft and terminal protrusions. No encoder; encoder-equipped siblings are different products.
