Continuous output torque is 260 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum output torque of 416 N.m under the same conditions — the continuous figure governs the duty cycle for most applications, while the maximum covers transient overloads. Efficiency is 94 %, meaning 6 % of input power is lost as heat in the gear train; this is typical for a single-stage planetary with straight teeth and influences the thermal load on the motor and enclosure. ## Mechanical ratings that set the operating envelope Service life is 30000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — at higher speeds or temperatures the life shortens; the gearbox is lubricated for life, so no oil changes are needed within that interval. Maximum torsional backlash is 14 arc.min, which defines the lost motion between input and output when reversing direction — relevant for positioning accuracy in indexing or servo-follow applications. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 2100 N for the 30000-hour life target, rising to 2800 N if the application accepts a 10000-hour service life; radial force limits are 1500 N and 2000 N respectively, with force applied at mid-distance from the shaft. Torsional rigidity is 12 N.m/arcmin — this stiffness figure tells you how much the gearbox twists under load; higher rigidity means less wind-up in precision motion paths. ## Environmental and integration constraints Shaft output sealing is IP54, meaning the output side is protected against dust ingress and splashing water — the gearbox body itself is black anodized aluminium, and the shaft is C45 steel. ## Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels Available through independent surplus and broker channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. The paperwork — including any original Schneider documentation — is sourced with the part where available, but compliance certifications (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC) should be verified against the specific production lot.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1200600552F planetary gearbox, 60:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1200600552F planetary gearbox, 60:1 reduction, 260 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":"60:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"12 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"3681.9 lbf.in (416 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":"2301.2 lbf.in (260 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":"14 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/f3a0b67f8c0ae30b888182a44c3249fa.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX1200600552F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-601-14arcmin-260-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1200600552F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of the GBX1200600552F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 260 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum output torque of 416 N.m under the same conditions.
