Product Overview
Can-Stack Stepper Motor Linear Actuator, 12VDC 4.6W - Haydon 06-0024-00 Rev. A
Condition
Unused, new old stock. In our photos the round can body carries its original wrap label, printed STEPPER MOTOR, 06-0024-00, REV. A, Haydon Switch and Instrument, Inc., Waterbury, Conn., 12VDC, 4.6W, U.S. PAT. 4,841,189 and 4,884,333, with the phone number (203) 756-7441 and the Haydon chevron logo on the side. The stamped steel mounting flange carries a small stamped code that reads TOTO in our shots. The white nylon nut hub sits open in its brass-colored front bearing, which shows the gold to violet tint typical of plated and heat-treated hardware. We have not powered or turned this unit, so rotation and travel are untested. Color-coded lead wires in red, black, blue and green come out of the back through a factory bead of white potting compound, and several ends carry loose gold-plated crimp terminals as supplied. Light scuffing on the flange and label edges from storage and handling. Lead screw not included.

Product Overview
The Haydon 06-0024-00 is a compact can-stack style stepper motor linear actuator built by Haydon Switch and Instrument in Waterbury, Connecticut. A can-stack actuator turns the stepper's rotor into a threaded nut, so each electrical pulse the driver sends becomes a fixed increment of straight-line travel instead of rotation, which is why these show up wherever small, repeatable positioning matters more than raw force. This unit is the Rev. A build, rated 12VDC and 4.6W on the label, with roughly 13 inch color-coded lead wires already crimped to gold-plated terminals for easy hookup. The front face is a two-hole stamped steel mounting flange with the white nylon nut hub open through the center, ready to accept the lead screw of your choice. Against the millimeter rule in our photos the round can body reads as roughly 36 mm across, close enough to the ruler that you should confirm the frame size against your own before you machine a mount. The lead screw is not included, so plan on sourcing or reusing the screw and anti-backlash hardware your build needs. Also searched as 06002400 and as a Haydon Kerk can-stack linear actuator.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this include the lead screw?
No. You are buying the motor and nut assembly only, exactly as pictured. The nylon hub in the center of the mounting flange is open through the middle so you can fit the lead screw and anti-backlash arrangement your design calls for.
What is actually printed on the unit?
The wrap label reads STEPPER MOTOR, 06-0024-00, REV. A, Haydon Switch and Instrument, Inc., Waterbury, Conn., 12VDC, 4.6W, U.S. PAT. 4,841,189 and 4,884,333, plus the phone number (203) 756-7441. There is no date code we can read on this example, and the mounting flange carries a small stamped mark that reads TOTO in our photos.
How do I wire the leads?
Not confirmed. The coil and phase assignments are not printed on the motor, and lead colors on these can-stacks vary by build. Ring out the winding pairs with a meter, or check the Haydon data for 06-0024-00, before you connect it to a driver.
What does unused, new old stock mean here?
It means this actuator was never put into service. It sat in storage rather than in a machine, and it comes to you in original condition with the marks you can see in the photos. Confirm winding resistance and step behavior against the datasheet before you design it into something that has to hold tolerance.
Why buy one or two of these instead of a bulk lot somewhere else?
Because a prototype stage or a single repair needs one actuator, not a tray of ten. We sell the exact count you need, we have 30 of these on the shelf, shipping is $8 flat rate and free over $28, and orders leave Idaho the same or next business day. For a couple of pieces the total is usually well under the price of a forced-quantity lot.
Haydon built these in Waterbury back when a phone number and two patent numbers stamped on the can were all the documentation anyone needed. Add the lead screw your design calls for, and this little can-stack goes back to counting out motion one step at a time.
