DC Motors - Rohs

(OP)
Does anybody know if there are any mfgs. out there that make Rohs compliant brushed DC gearmotors.  Looking for about 150W with a 12:1 reduction, 24VDC.

Guys,

RoHS is a European directive. I doubt US motors will comply with the directive, nice products as they appear to be. Here's a bit of background: http://www.rohs.gov.uk/

RE: DC Motors - Rohs

Scotty,
ROHS is being followed (or atleast trying to be)everywhere now.
Infact I have a hard time finding US made parts that aren't ROHS compliant (for what I design anyways).

California even has their own ROHS regulations.

RE: DC Motors - Rohs

That's interesting - I hadn't realised that. My mistake!
