US Moters 1971 was the Nidec- variable speed, 1/4hp, 208 to 240 volts, 50-60 hz. I picked up the collection because of the unique switch and plug. Also there is a bit of a story behind it's age. It was manufactured in Japan in 1971. How do I know that? That is a good question! I have a friend who worked at a company called Small Parts, Inc., that bought old stock and surplus equipment from 1960-1980's. At one time Small Parts had over a million dollars worth in inventory and most of it was not even cataloged

One of the great vintage motors from US Motors. Their '71 catalog has a listing of a 1/4hp motor with a 3/8" shaft and a 1750 rpm speed, but I couldn't perfectly confirm it was the same one. They also listed an aluminum version, but not sure if the one I found was made of aluminum as well. Great addition for your vintage Gama or Sanwa racer

This tabletop display simulates the older style motors using Neodymium magnets. This model features a direct driven 1/4hp motor, with no capacitor or external power supply needed.
