Frequently Asked Questions

Is WorldWide Electric a quality brand?

WorldWide Electric is a major US motor and drive supplier (Rochester, NY) whose lines cover general purpose through severe duty, with premium efficient designs meeting NEMA MG-1 Table 12-12 and inverter-duty insulation standard on PE lines. Their SMR shaft-mount reducer and crusher duty motors are widely used as drop-in industrial replacements.

Do you stock WorldWide Electric or order it in?

Both. Thousands of WWE items are stocked for same-day shipment, and the balance of the catalog ships from regional warehouses - call (888) 203-2358 and we confirm real availability before you commit.

Can you cross my old motor to a WorldWide Electric equivalent?

Yes - with HP, RPM, frame, voltage, enclosure, and service factor off the nameplate, most general purpose and severe duty motors cross directly. Send a nameplate photo and we return the WWE part number and price.

Do WorldWide Electric motors come with a warranty?

WWE motors carry the manufacturer's standard warranty, which varies by product family. We handle warranty coordination on units purchased through us - keep your invoice and the motor's serial number.

What documentation is available for these products?

Nearly every listing includes the manufacturer datasheet, and many series include brochures, manuals, and 2D/3D CAD - linked in the Documentation section of each product page.
