We've had great luck using a FP by cutting down the gearbox to whatever state best fits our application. Two years in a row, we have rollers powered by FPs with the third stage on the plastic gearbox removed, and they have been tremendously reliable.
That said, I don't know that *any* motor likes to stall for very long when hooked to a 12V battery...
