SHS High Torque Motor for AEG Gearboxes — pulling power, for heavy springs and low ratios. Pick the axle length your grip takes.

Torque motors are the other half of the choice. They turn more slowly but pull harder, which is what a heavy spring or a low gear ratio actually needs.

The symptom of not having enough is familiar. The gun cycles happily on a fresh battery and begins locking up as the pack sags, or it short-strokes on the first pull after sitting.

Most marksman builds and anything running above roughly M120 want torque rather than speed. So does a gearbox on low-ratio gears, where the motor is being asked to shift more per revolution.

Good to know before you buy

Spring rate settles this more than anything else does. Much above an M120, or a gearbox running low-ratio gears, wants pulling power rather than revolutions.

Match the axle to the motor you are taking out rather than to the gearbox version. Grips and motor cages vary within a single version and the wrong length will not mesh cleanly.

Rate of fire will come down, and that is what you are paying for rather than a shortcoming in the part.

Frequently asked questions

Torque or speed?
Spring rate decides it more than anything else. Heavier springs and lower ratios want torque; lighter springs and higher ratios want speed.

Which axle do I need?
Compare against the motor coming out. Grips and motor cages differ even within the same gearbox version.

Will it make the gun quieter?
Not by itself. Motor noise is mostly pinion mesh and motor height, and both of those are set on fitting rather than bought.

⚠ Torque is not free: a torque motor turning more slowly will lower your rate of fire, and that is the trade you are making rather than a fault with the part.
💡 Titan Forge Airsoft tip: If the gun locks up as the battery drops rather than when it is fresh, you are short of torque, not short of battery. See the rest of our spare and upgrade parts.
