This motor mounting bracket is an essential accessory when installing a MY1016Z or similar e-bike/e-cart motor in a custom project. The MY1016Z motors (which are the 24V 250W, 350W geared motors with ~300 RPM output) have a particular set of threaded holes on their gearbox housing. This bracket is fabricated to line up perfectly with those holes, so that the motor can be bolted on firmly.
Key features of the bracket: - Material & Build: Typically made from 4–6 mm thick steel plate (often powder-coated for corrosion resistance) or a similarly strong aluminum alloy plate. Steel is more common due to its strength and the fact that a slight flex could throw chains off. - Hole Pattern: It will have a pattern of holes (usually 2 or 4) that correspond to the motor’s mounting holes. For MY1016Z, usually there are two threaded holes on the motor’s front face (the face with the output sprocket) spaced about 42–45 mm apart, often M6 size. The bracket will have matching clearance holes or slots for M6 bolts to go through. - Motor Orientation: The bracket is often an L-shaped or Z-shaped piece that positions the motor at the correct angle. Commonly, one face of the bracket bolts to the motor (vertical face), and the bottom face bolts to a flat surface on the vehicle. Some brackets have a curved design to wrap around part of the motor, but most are simple L plates or U shapes. - Mounting to Frame: The bracket has additional holes for mounting it to your frame or chassis. These might be slots to allow chain tension adjustment (i.e., slide the motor to tighten the chain). For example, two elongated slots on the base so you can shift the bracket slightly. - Size: The bracket is compact, just big enough to secure the motor. Possibly around 10 cm x 10 cm on the base, with the vertical portion sized to the motor diameter (~10 cm). - Compatibility: While specifically for MY1016Z, it may also fit similar motors (like MY1018 or other Unite motors) with slight variations in hole distance.
Using this bracket ensures the motor is held firmly in place, which is crucial because the geared motor exerts significant torque on its mount when driving a load. A proper bracket prevents motor twisting and keeps the chain aligned, reducing wear and the chance of derailing the chain. Without a bracket, builders often have to fabricate something out of metal themselves; this product saves that effort and ensures accuracy.
