Our Review
For $51.48 CAD, the 1PCS CNC machined Nema 17 Stepper Motor Damper Silicone Shock Absorber 42 Motor 2MM Thickness packs respectable specs: Step Angle: 1.8 degrees (200 steps/rev), Rated Current: 1.5A per phase, Holding Torque: 26 Ncm. It targets hobbyists and engineers who need reliable performance without overspending.
Mechanical performance was consistent in our testing. Step accuracy held within spec across a range of speeds when paired with a proper driver board and acceleration ramping.
Wiring was straightforward. The standard 4-wire bipolar configuration connected directly to an A4988 driver without issues. Color codes matched common pinout charts.
For the price point, the 1PCS CNC machined Nema 17 Stepper Motor Damper Silicone Shock Absorber 42 Motor 2MM Thickness delivers what you need without unnecessary complexity. Recommended for hobbyists and engineers working on projects where motors & actuators components are essential.
What We Like
- Smooth microstepping reduces vibration and noise
- Precise open-loop positioning without feedback encoders
- Works with standard A4988/TMC2209 stepper drivers
- Affordable replacement for 3D printer and CNC upgrades
Watch Out For
- Audible resonance at certain speed ranges
- Draws full rated current even when stationary (gets warm)
- Wire color coding varies between manufacturers
