FA-1218RD Two-Pole Coreless Brushless DC Motor
FA-1218RD is a compact 5W two-pole miniature coreless brushless DC motor with Φ12 outer diameter and 18mm body length. Adopts 2-pole magnetic design for ultra-fast dynamic response, equipped with sleeve oil bearings and built-in 3-channel hall sensor for stable closed-loop speed control. Three winding versions cover 7.4V lithium and 12V industrial voltages, balancing ultra-high speed and medium torque output. Two matching micro planetary gearboxes G12MF & G12XL and mini encoders are optional for tiny portable devices.

Engineering Overview
FA-1218RD two-pole coreless BLDC features ultra-low rotor inertia, ultra-high speed and rapid start-stop response. Two-pole slotless design eliminates cogging torque, achieving ultra-silent and smooth rotation. Only 12g lightweight slim body fits ultra-narrow mini equipment structures. Sleeve bearings ensure stable low-load long-term operation. Multiple voltage and speed versions match lithium beauty devices and low-voltage portable electronics. Matched G12MF/G12XL micro gearboxes reduce speed and boost torque for tiny precision drive modules.
Typical Applications:
• Mini nail polish polishers, facial massage beauty instruments
• Portable miniature medical sampling & testing equipment
• Tiny camera focusing gimbal, optical micro adjustment modules
• Small portable household personal care appliances
