Description
The Solenoid 5V Mini is a compact DC solenoid rated for 5 V. When current flows through its coil, the magnetic field moves a metal plunger in a short, quick stroke, turning an electrical signal into linear motion. Its small size and low operating voltage make it easy to fit into Arduino, ESP32 and robotics projects that need to push, pull or release something.
Solenoid 5V Mini Specifications
- Type: electromagnetic DC solenoid with a moving plunger

What's in the Box
- 1 × 5 V mini solenoid
Tip: An Arduino or ESP32 pin cannot power a solenoid coil, so switch it with a logic-level MOSFET or a transistor and fit a 1N4007 diode across the coil to absorb the voltage spike at turn-off. Use a 5 V supply that can handle the coil current, and do not leave it powered for long periods because the coil heats up.
