The Whitfield 12046300 is a direct-replacement auger motor engineered to restore reliable pellet feed in Blaze King, Earth Stove, Lennox, and Whitfield pellet stoves. Running at a steady 1 RPM at 120V, it delivers consistent, even fuel delivery from the hopper to the burn pot -- keeping your heat output stable and your burn clean all season long. Arrives fully assembled and ready to install.
When an auger motor fails or runs erratically, your stove loses the steady pellet flow needed for efficient combustion. The Whitfield 12046300 restores that flow with a precision 1 RPM clockwise rotation (when facing the shaft), matching the original factory specification for compatible stove models.
Pre-assembled with 20-inch leads that connect directly to your stove's existing wiring harness, installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic appliance service. No special tools are required beyond what's needed to access and seat the motor in your auger tube housing.
Clockwise rotation (facing shaft) delivers even, metered pellet feed -- no surging, no starving the burn pot.
Comes fully assembled with 20-inch wire leads. Connects directly to your stove's factory wiring -- no splicing harness required.
Fits select Blaze King, Earth Stove, Lennox, and Whitfield pellet stove models. Also sold as NBK Parts 20127.
Manufactured in the USA and backed by a 1-year manufacturer warranty for peace of mind through heating season and beyond.
The auger motor drives a spiral screw (the auger) that pulls wood pellets from the hopper and drops them into the burn pot at a controlled rate. Motor speed -- measured in RPM -- directly determines your heat output level. A 1 RPM motor like the 12046300 is the standard low-speed configuration used in many residential pellet stoves to regulate fuel delivery across the stove's heat settings (the stove's control board governs actual feed rate through timed on/off cycles).
A worn or failed auger motor shows up as: no heat despite the stove powering on, pellets not moving from the hopper, unusual grinding or clicking at the auger tube, or error codes related to feed failure. If you've ruled out a jam in the auger tube itself, the motor is the most common cause.
The Whitfield 12046300 is a direct OEM-style replacement for select models across four pellet stove brands. Confirm your stove's model number against the compatible list before purchasing. This motor is also catalogued under NBK Parts number 20127.
