Continuous output torque is rated at 230 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C — this is the sustained load the gearbox can carry without overheating or exceeding the 30000-hour service life. Peak capability reaches 368 N.m under the same conditions, useful for acceleration or momentary overloads. Efficiency is listed at 94 %, which means about 6 % of input power is lost as heat — typical for a single-stage planetary with straight teeth. ## Load capacity and stiffness — sizing the gearbox to the application Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 2100 N for a 30000-hour life at 100 rpm, or 2800 N if you accept a shorter 10000-hour service interval. Maximum radial force (applied at mid-distance from the output shaft) is 1500 N for 30000 hours, or 2000 N for 10000 hours — these limits govern overhung loads from pulleys or sprockets. Torsional rigidity is 13 N.m/arcmin, which tells you how much the gearbox twists under load — lower is stiffer, important for positioning accuracy in servo axes. Maximum torsional backlash is 12 arc.min — this is the lost motion between input and output when reversing direction, a key spec for pick-and-place or indexing applications. ## Environmental fit and mounting The gearbox has an IP54 rating at the shaft output, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and splashing water — suitable for dry indoor environments but not washdown. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no oil changes or regreasing intervals to schedule. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete but available The part is available through independent distribution channels; quantities are confirmed at RFQ and sourced against the BOM line.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1200251004F Planetary Gearbox, 25:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1200251004F planetary gearbox, 25:1 ratio, 230 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency.
