Continuous output torque is 40 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C — this is the figure to size against your duty cycle, not the 64 N.m peak maximum. At 94% efficiency, thermal losses stay low enough that the 30,000-hour service life is achievable in continuous-run applications. The 5:1 reduction means a 3000 rpm input motor delivers 600 rpm at the output. Backlash is 16 arcmin — typical for a straight-tooth planetary, adequate for conveyor indexing or rotary tables but not for precision positioning stages. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete, quoted to order Schneider Electric lists this gearbox as Obsolete. The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels — quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. For a BOM freeze or a replacement on an existing machine, the 60 mm frame size, 5:1 ratio, and 40 N.m continuous torque are the parameters to match against a current-production planetary gearbox from any supplier. The straight-tooth design and 16 arcmin backlash are the tolerance envelope the replacement must meet. ## Mounting and environmental fit The 60 mm diameter housing is black anodized aluminium — lightweight and corrosion-resistant for indoor use. Shaft material is C45 steel, and the output seal is rated IP54, meaning it keeps out dust and splashing water but is not washdown-rated. The gearbox is lubricated for life — no scheduled grease changes. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 450 N at 100 rpm for the full 30,000-hour life, and maximum radial force is 340 N when applied at mid-shaft. Noise output is 58 dB at 1 m under no-load — quiet enough for operator-adjacent conveyor or packaging lines without acoustic enclosures.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0600051003F Planetary Gearbox, 5:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600051003F planetary gearbox, 60 mm, 5:1 ratio, 40 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":"58 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":"2.3 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"566.4 lbf.in (64 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":"450 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 600 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"340 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 500 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"354.03 lbf.in (40 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"2.4 in (60 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"16 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/79309a0bcc9f899c14fcf2a0f5377a99.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX0600051003F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-51-16arcmin-40-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0600051003F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the closest alternative to GBX0600051003F?","answer":"To source a current-production replacement, match the 60 mm frame diameter, 5:1 reduction ratio, 40 N.m continuous torque, and 16 arcmin backlash envelope.
