It's rated for 14 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent torque of 22 N.m under the same conditions. Efficiency sits at 94 %, keeping power loss low in the drivetrain. The gearbox is lubricated for life — no field maintenance needed — and the black anodised aluminium housing with C45 steel shaft gives it a straightforward industrial build. ## Torque, backlash, and service life at a glance Continuous torque is 14 N.m at 100 rpm; the maximum allowed torque peaks at 22 N.m at the same speed. Backlash is 24 arcmin — standard for a straight-tooth planetary stage, not a precision zero-backlash unit — so factor that into positioning accuracy budgets. Service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C. Radial and axial load limits are 200 N for a 10,000-hour life, dropping to 160 N for the full 30,000-hour run — both applied at mid-distance on the output shaft. ## Obsolete — sourcing reality Schneider Electric lists the GBX0400051001F as obsolete. Available through independent distribution channels; quantities and pricing confirmed at RFQ. For a replacement, look for a 40 mm planetary gearbox with a 5:1 ratio, 14 N.m continuous torque, and 24 arcmin or better backlash. The shaft output IP54 rating and 30,000-hour service life at 100 rpm are the baseline specs to match.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400051001F Planetary Gearbox, 5:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400051001F planetary gearbox 40 mm diameter, 5:1 ratio, 14 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"55 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"5:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"1 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"194.7 lbf.in (22 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Nbr. of units in pkg.":"1","Service life in hours":"30000 h 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Additional information":"Lubricated for life","Maximum axial force Fa":"200 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C 160 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"200 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C 160 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"123.9 lbf.in (14 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"1.6 in (40 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"24 arc.min","Ambient Temperature For Operation":"-13...194 °F (-25...90 °C)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/81ea235062bbdd6ec439dbc0e42c705b.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nz/en/product/GBX0400051001F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-40-mm-reduction-51-24arcmin-14-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0400051001F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What are the key torque ratings for GBX0400051001F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 14 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
