Overview
The Brooks Hanson 3HP 460V 3600RPM 3-Phase 143T 145T motor is a surplus industrial electric motor built for general-purpose and industrial machinery applications. This motor features a 460V voltage range with 3600RPM speed and 3-phase design with 143T or 145T frame tension, making it suitable for direct-drive or belt-drive equipment in manufacturing, pump drives, and compressor applications. Available as-is from our Austin, TX inventory with same-day shipping capability.
