It delivers 40 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient, with a peak rating of 64 N.m under the same conditions. Efficiency is listed at 94 % — the straight-tooth profile trades some efficiency against helical for lower cost and simpler backlash control. The noise level at 58 dB 1 m, no-load, is typical for a straight-tooth planetary stage of this size. ## Torque, life, and force limits — the real selection numbers Continuous torque is 40 N.m at 100 rpm; the maximum output torque of 64 N.m is the overload ceiling, not the running point. Service life is rated 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — the gearbox is lubricated for life, so no oil-change interval to schedule. Axial force on the output shaft is limited to 450 N for the full 30,000-hour life, or 600 N if you accept a 10,000-hour service window. Radial force, applied at mid-shaft, is 340 N for 30,000 hours or 500 N for 10,000 hours — these are the bearing-life limits, not the shaft bending limit. Maximum torsional backlash is 16 arc.min — acceptable for positioning axes where the load doesn't reverse frequently, but not for high-precision indexing. Torsional rigidity is 2.3 N.m/arcmin, which gives the stiffness under load. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete, sourced to order Schneider Electric lists the GBX0600051004F as obsolete. No official successor or cross-reference is recorded from the manufacturer. The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels — quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. For a line-down replacement, the key envelope dimensions are the 60 mm outer diameter and the 5:1 ratio. The IP54 shaft output seal means it's splash-protected at the output end but not submersible.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0600051004F planetary gearbox","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0600051004F planetary gearbox. 60 mm diameter, 5:1 reduction, 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/69beec4206583ff8287e238b5a28ec9b.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX0600051004F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-60-mm-reduction-51-16arcmin-40-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0600051004F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX0600051004F","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX0600051004F when reusing this data.
