Gearing the Parallax Stepper Motor

It seems that the Parallax stepper motor has a much lower torque than the Parallax servo motor.
Anyone knows where to find a gear that matches the gear head of the Parallax stepper motor so that the torque can be increased?

Thanks.

    I would find the size of the shaft and then Google for options but that's just me.

    William,

    The Stepper Motor we carry isn’t really intended for application use, but for educational purposes. Sometimes the model can even change. I would recommend purchasing a Stepper Motor from a distributor that carries a selection and choosing one fit to your application based on it’s specifications. Take care.
