    We ordered a bunch [Ten] of the ROB12144 168RPM Standard 12V Gearmotors.. We've had two failures.. Both of them stripped a gear.. In spite of what your description says... the two motors that failed have a nylon gear in the gear train.. The rest are metal... But the Nylon gear is shredded... sure wish we had some with ALL METAL Gears... Ray Holland... Simon Fraser University Burnaby BC Canada ... rholland@sfu.ca
