Convert speed to torque to get the power you need—gearmotors are a motor and speed reducer in one. You can wire for clockwise or counterclockwise rotation; instructions are included. Gearmotors transmit motion inline with the motor.

To control motor speed, motor controls are also available. To convert AC power to DC power, see AC to DC transformers.

Drive low-speed, high-torque applications in tight areas that are washed down. These gearmotors have an epoxy-coated enclosure and are rated IP55 to protect against water from low-pressure washdowns. They combine both a motor and speed reducer to lower speeds and increase torque. Since their shaft is at a 90° angle from their motor, they transmit motion alongside your application, so they take up less space than gearmotors with a shaft that's inline with their motor. They have a TENV (totally enclosed nonventilated) enclosure that is similar to a TEFC (totally enclosed fan cooled) enclosure, except it doesn't have a fan. It relies on cooling from the air circulation created by the motor's motion instead.

You can wire the shaft to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise; instructions are included. You can also switch the shaft's right-hand orientation to a left-hand orientation by removing the retaining covers, reversing the orientation, and then reassembling.
