Measure the thickness of your clock dial or panel, then choose a shaft that extends at least 2–3mm beyond the face for proper hand attachment. The available options — 8mm, 12mm, 14.8mm, 17mm, 20mm, and 23mm — cover most standard DIY and replacement clock applications. Note that the 8mm shaft does not have threads; all other lengths are threaded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Is the Young Town 12888 movement truly silent?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes. The Young Town 12888 uses a silent jump-seconds quartz motor, which moves the seconds hand in smooth, near-silent steps rather than the loud tick-tock of traditional stepping motors. This makes it ideal for quiet environments such as bedrooms, libraries, and offices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What accessories are included with this clock movement kit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Each unit includes the quartz movement module, a metal gasket, a plastic gasket, and a securing nut for installation. Clock hands and an AA battery are not included and must be sourced separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can this movement be used in a music box or other DIY timing project?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Absolutely. The Young Town 12888 is designed for use in wall clocks, music boxes, and any custom DIY timing project that requires a compact, accurate quartz mechanism. Its standard 56 × 56mm footprint fits most clock frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\", \"@type\": \"FAQPage\", \"mainEntity\": [{\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What shaft length should I choose for my clock movement replacement?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"The correct shaft length depends on the thickness of your clock face plate.
