Customer Reviews for New 1Hp Electric Motor 140156C Single Phase 56C Frame TEFC 115/230V 1800RPM

I bought a pair of these after my father bought one for his lift. We both live on saltwater canals in Florida. After a couple months outdoors, you can see rust on the screws and the case. I hit it pretty well with Fluid Film to hold down the corrosion. I also removed entirely the box containing the thermal reset switch - don't need that for my application and the boxes wouldn't fit under the motor covers. I covered the exposed slots that were under those boxes with vinyl graphic film to seal out the elements. The image I'm including is the wiring I needed to hook up a Gem Remote box. My father had manual switches in his control box that used the same wiring color scheme. This is for the 120V hookup. T6 and T8 are the two starting capacitors. You energize one or the other to start the thing moving CW or CCW, and the other two wire pairs are always the same.

bought to replace burned out 1-1/2 hp motor on my 12x36" ENCO metal lathe. This is a high torque quiet running motor. I was able to easily wire into the lathe existing control box for normal forward and reversing operations. On these step pulley, belt driven lathes, it is necessary to machine a new pulley as I was unable to find any place the size needed for my lathe

Using this to run a 14” Rock saw! Plenty of power and so quiet

Motor was packaged extremely well. Used to replace a 110v 3/4hp motor on a dinosaur aged drill press. This motor size is quit a bit larger but with the universal mount it was not an issue. The wiring photos and directions were the easiest to follow I've seen. This motor has way more power than the old one I replaced and it is very quiet. Very pleased with my purchase. Oh and the price was way less than others for sale.

Motor on the hay conveyor went out on the farm. Replaced the 1/2 HP motor with this one and it made a major improvement. Worked good out of the box. Install issues has nothing to do with the motor but rusted bolts and part after many years of use. Only time will tell on how well this motor will hold up, but for now, doing great.

Motor has run satisfactory, but just installed. Time will tell.

this electric motor had to be reorderd thru customer service as buy again. never got my first order. thanks amazon customer service !! I was very pleased when my item was here. the cardboard box motor came in had no damage and the motor was packed very well. motor was wired up for 220v so i changed it to 110v to check motor out. diagram on motor housing was spot on. motor ran great. i'm very pleased. i like building things and needed the motor to build around to make a frame to custom fit this motor and work out from it. back to work .

Bought this motor for a grain auger, works great.

Well built. Operates as expected. Would purchase again.

Great motor! This is the second 1hp I bought from Vevor, the first works very good so when I needed the second one I went with them with no question in my mind that it would work perfectly. Both machines they run are used for long periods of time and have been problem free of any motor issues. Don’t be nervous of the lower cost and country of origin as I was, they work great.
