The continuous output torque is 155 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient — this is the sustained load the gearbox can carry without exceeding its thermal or mechanical limits. The maximum output torque reaches 248 N.m under the same conditions, intended for peak loads during acceleration or momentary overloads. Maximum torsional backlash is 8 arc.min, which defines the angular play between input and output when reversing direction. For positioning applications that require repeatable stops, this figure tells you the lost motion you must budget for in the servo loop or mechanical stop. ## Service life and load ratings — sizing against the duty cycle Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — the gearbox is lubricated for life, so no maintenance interval for grease changes applies. The maximum axial force Fa is 2100 N at 100 rpm over the full 30,000-hour life, or 2800 N if the application accepts a reduced 10,000-hour service window. Maximum radial force Fr is 1500 N at 100 rpm for the 30,000-hour life, measured at the midpoint of the output shaft. Both axial and radial limits drop if the speed exceeds 100 rpm — the gearbox bearings are the constraint, not the gear mesh. ## Efficiency, noise, and environmental sealing Listed efficiency is 94 %, meaning 6 % of the input power is lost as heat in the gear mesh and bearings. This is typical for a single-stage planetary with straight teeth at the 4:1 ratio. Noise level is 65 dB at 1 m, no-load — a moderate figure for a planetary gearbox of this diameter. The shaft output carries an IP54 rating, which means the seal at the output shaft resists dust ingress and splashing water but is not submersible. Housing is black anodized aluminium with a 120 mm external diameter; the shaft material is C45 carbon steel. Ambient operating range spans -25 °C to 90 °C.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1200041002F Planetary Gearbox, 4:1","metaDescription":"Obsolete Schneider GBX1200041002F planetary gearbox, 4:1 ratio, 155 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":"65 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":"12 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"2195.0 lbf.in (248 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":"2100 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 2800 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"1500 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 2000 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"1371.9 lbf.in (155 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"4.7 in (120 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"8 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/6c08e81d3a289f2f5b24d0306da5ff3f.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX1200041002F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-41-8arcmin-155-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1200041002F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"How can I order the GBX1200041002F or check availability?","answer":"This obsolete planetary gearbox is sourced through independent distribution channels.
