Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient, with the gearbox lubricated for life and sealed in a black anodized aluminium housing. ## Load ratings and backlash — what they mean for your axis Maximum axial force is 200 N at 100 rpm for a 10,000-hour life, dropping to 160 N for the full 30,000-hour service interval — the same derating applies to radial force (200 N / 160 N at mid-shaft). Torsional backlash is 24 arcmin maximum — this is a standard-precision grade, not a zero-backlash unit. If your application requires repeatable positioning under reversing loads, budget for this lash in the control loop or consider a preloaded alternative. Torsional rigidity is 1 N·m/arcmin, meaning the shaft wind-up under rated torque stays within predictable bounds for a 40 mm frame. ## Lifecycle reality — obsolete, but we source it Schneider Electric lists the GBX0400031402F as obsolete — no direct factory replacement is published for this order code. We source this part through independent surplus channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. If you are holding a BOM that calls out this exact gearbox, this is the last-time-buy window — buy what you need for the remaining service life of the machine.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400031402F Planetary Gearbox, 3:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400031402F planetary gearbox, 40 mm diameter, 3:1 reduction, 94% efficiency.

This is a straight-tooth planetary design, so the efficiency is typical for this gearbox class — expect slightly lower efficiency at very low speeds or partial loads due to sliding friction in the gear mesh."},{"question":"What is the closest alternative to GBX0400031402F in the GBX family?","answer":"No pin-compatible or parametric replacement is listed by Schneider Electric for this specific order code. If you need a 40 mm planetary gearbox with a 3:1 ratio, a different GBX variant with the same frame size may fit, but the shaft configuration and backlash class must be verified against your application.
