Practical Wheel for Maker, Student, and Prototype Builds
The Motor and Rubber Wheel Kit is a practical wheel from Circuitrocks for students, makers, and repair-friendly builds. It fits well in projects that need robot wheel replacements, while keeping setup straightforward for testing and prototype work.
Compared with generic parts, this product stands out through details such as Built-in encoder. That makes it a solid choice for Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, robotics, motion-control, and workshop projects where matching the right part from the start saves time.
Important: Always match the electrical rating, size, and control method of this part with the rest of your setup before full-power testing.
Why you'll love it
- Encoder-related feedback: helps when motion or speed needs to be tracked more closely
- Useful traction upgrade: adds useful value when choosing parts for a build
- Good for robot replacements: adds useful value when choosing parts for a build
- Easy to match by size: adds useful value when choosing parts for a build
- Helps complete mobile robot assemblies: adds useful value when choosing parts for a build
What you can build
This product is a good fit for robot car replacements, traction upgrades, and custom drivetrains. It works especially well in student projects, quick repairs, and prototype builds where part availability, straightforward hookup, and predictable results matter.
Starter bundles
This works best when matched with the correct motors, shafts, brackets, bearings, belts, or fasteners already planned for your build.
Recommended add-ons
Useful add-ons include motors, hubs, axles, chassis kits, and replacement tires. You can also compare it with DFRobot Rubber Wheel 136x24mm Kit - Pair w/ Hubs & Hardware, Rubber Wheel N20 ABS 43x19mm.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this work with Arduino or similar boards?
Yes, as long as the voltage, control method, and wiring match your controller and power supply.
Does this need electrical wiring?
No. These are passive or mixed-use parts, so fit, size, mounting, and included components are the main checks before use.
Is this good for student and prototype builds?
Yes. It fits well in testing, learning, and proof-of-concept projects when matched with the right support parts.
How do I choose the right one?
Check the hole size, shaft fit, thread pitch, spacing, and overall dimensions before ordering.
