The insulation on the motor is stamped " 125 C ". That's 257 deg. F. I don't doubt that, given how hard some of us push these motors that that internal temperature
( not what gets measured with the temp gun on the can after retrieval and untaping) can reach these temps. While I'd like to see a higher (or more accurate) spec on the wire insulation and especially on the stator windings, these are good motors for the money and, realistically, were not likely intended to be pushed as hard as many of us do. Then again, the race goes on.....
