Continuous output torque is 14 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent torque of 22 N.m at the same speed — the continuous figure governs the steady-state load the gearbox can carry without overheating or accelerated wear. The straight-tooth planetary design delivers 94 % efficiency, meaning 6 % of the input power is lost as heat inside the housing; this matters for thermal management in a confined enclosure or when the duty cycle is high. ## Load limits and service life at rated conditions Rated service life is 30000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — the design-life anchor for maintenance planning. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no field relubrication is required over that interval. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 200 N for a 10000-hour life, dropping to 160 N for the full 30000-hour rating. Maximum radial force applied at mid-span on the output shaft follows the same derating: 200 N at 10000 hours, 160 N at 30000 hours. These limits govern overhung loads from belt drives or direct gear meshes. Torsional rigidity is 1 N.m/arcmin — the shaft twist under load is 1 arcminute per N.m of applied torque. Maximum torsional backlash is 24 arcminutes, which sets the positioning repeatability floor for the gear train in reversing or start-stop applications. ## Environmental ratings and mechanical construction Shaft output sealing is rated IP54, meaning the gearbox is protected against dust ingress and splashing water at the output shaft — suitable for dry indoor environments but not washdown or outdoor exposure without additional shielding. The housing is black anodized aluminium for corrosion resistance and heat dissipation; the shaft is C 45 medium-carbon steel. Noise level is 55 dB measured at 1 m under no-load conditions — quiet enough for operator-adjacent machinery but not silent; the straight-tooth design is inherently noisier than helical gearing at higher speeds. ## Lifecycle status and sourcing for this obsolete gearbox Available through independent surplus and broker channels. No direct OEM stock or lead-time commitment applies.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400051003F planetary gearbox","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400051003F planetary gearbox, 5:1 reduction, 14 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, IP54 shaft output.","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/e6775cabc7bed4a478ad9d58928c13b1.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ca/en/product/GBX0400051003F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-40-mm-reduction-51-24arcmin-14-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0400051003F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous output torque of GBX0400051003F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 14 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
