Continuous output torque is 115 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient; maximum output torque hits 184 N.m under the same conditions — that 1.6x peak gives you headroom for acceleration and occasional overload without oversizing the frame. Rated service life is 30000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with the gearbox lubricated for life — no maintenance oil changes, which matters for sealed-into-the-machine applications. ## Efficiency, backlash, and noise — the fit details Listed efficiency is 94 % — that's about 6 % of input power lost as heat, which the black anodized aluminium housing (80 mm OD) has to sink. For a continuously running axis, that heat load needs to be considered in the enclosure thermal budget. Maximum torsional backlash is 9 arc.min — that's the lost motion between input and output under reversing load. For positioning applications, this sets the repeatability floor; for simple speed-reduction drives it's less critical. Noise level is 60 dB at 1 m, no-load — a moderate figure that won't dominate a typical machine floor but should be noted if the gearbox is in an operator-adjacent area. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete, available through independent channels The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels. Quantities are confirmed per RFQ; expect lot-specific pricing and no manufacturer warranty — standard for this sourcing route. ## Shaft loads and sealing — mounting constraints Maximum axial force (Fa) is 1200 N at 100 rpm for 10000 hours, derating to 900 N for the full 30000-hour life. Maximum radial force (Fr) is 950 N at mid-shaft for 10000 hours, 650 N for 30000 hours. These are the limits for bearing life — overhung loads from belt drives or pinions need to be checked against these curves. Shaft output seal is IP54 — splash-proof, not washdown-rated. The housing is black anodized aluminium, shaft material C45 (medium carbon steel). Ambient operating range is -13 to 194 °F (-25 to 90 °C).","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0800040553F Planetary Gearbox, 4:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0800040553F planetary gearbox, 80 mm diameter, 4:1 ratio, 115 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":"60 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"4:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"6 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"1628.5 lbf.in (184 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":"1200 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C 900 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"650 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 950 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"1017.8 lbf.in (115 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"3.1 in (80 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"9 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/e7d683875d40db1bf5cae10c10655f94.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX0800040553F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-80-mm-reduction-41-9arcmin-115-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0800040553F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of the GBX0800040553F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 115 N.m (1017.8 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient.
