Stall torque

Electric motors, steam engines and hydrodynamic transmissions are all capable of developing torque when stalled.

[1] Electric motors[2] continue to provide torque when stalled.

[3] The maximum torque an electric motor can produce in the long term when stalled without causing damage is called the maximum continuous stall torque.

In most cases, damage due to overheating occurs if the stall condition persists for any significant length of time.

The actual amount of torque is dependent on engine RPM and throttle opening.
