Efficiency sits at 94 % — the straight-tooth design trades a few percent for lower cost vs helical, but the loss stays within the housing's thermal budget at rated load. Noise level is 55 dB at 1 m, no-load, which is typical for a straight-tooth planetary of this size — fine for most machine-tool and conveyor drives, but if the application is in a quiet assembly area, budget for an acoustic enclosure. ## Torque, life, and the limits that matter Continuous output torque is 6 N.m; maximum output torque peaks at 10 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C — the extra 4 N.m is for acceleration transients, not sustained load. Service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C. If the duty cycle pushes radial or axial loads above 160 N (Fr or Fa at 100 rpm, 30 °C, 30,000 h), life drops to 10,000 h at the 200 N limit. Maximum torsional backlash is 30 arc.min — that is about 0.5° of lost motion at the output. For positioning applications requiring repeatability under 0.1°, this gearbox needs a servo with encoder feedback to close the loop after the backlash. The housing is black anodized aluminium, 40 mm external diameter, with a C 45 steel output shaft. Shaft output IP54 means it resists dust and splash — fine for dry indoor use, but not washdown. Torsional rigidity is 1 N.m/arcmin — the shaft twist under full continuous torque is about 6 arcmin, well within the 30 arcmin backlash budget. Lubricated for life — no maintenance ports, no oil-change interval. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C. ## Lifecycle and sourcing — obsolete, quoted to order Schneider Electric lists this part as Obsolete. Available through independent surplus channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. No stock-holding claim — sourced per BOM line.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400081403F Planetary Gearbox, 8:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400081403F planetary gearbox, 40 mm diameter, 8:1 reduction, 6 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":"8:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"1 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"88.5 lbf.in (10 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":"53.1 lbf.in (6 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":"30 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/120fa5d7bdb00e61347cd62a460610e6.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nz/en/product/GBX0400081403F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-40-mm-reduction-81-30arcmin-6-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0400081403F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"How can I order GBX0400081403F or check availability?","answer":"The GBX0400081403F is obsolete.
