Peak torque capability reaches 416 N.m under the same conditions, and the unit delivers 94 % efficiency — a figure that holds across the rated speed range when the gearbox is sized to the load. Maximum torsional backlash is 14 arc-minutes, with torsional rigidity rated at 12 N.m/arcmin, giving a predictable windup under load for positioning applications. ## Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels Schneider Electric lists this gearbox as obsolete. Available through independent surplus and broker channels. For a BOM line that already carries this order code, the sourcing posture is quoted-to-order against the required quantity; lead time and pricing vary per lot and are established at quote time. ## Load ratings and service life at 100 rpm Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no periodic oil changes are needed — a maintenance advantage in sealed or hard-to-access installations. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 2100 N for the full 30,000-hour life, or 2800 N for a 10,000-hour duty cycle. Maximum radial force (applied at mid-distance from the output shaft) is 1500 N for 30,000 hours, or 2000 N for 10,000 hours. Shaft output sealing is IP54 — splash-resistant but not submersible. The housing is black anodised aluminium; the shaft is C45 carbon steel. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1201000553F planetary gearbox, 100:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1201000553F planetary gearbox, 100:1 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":"100:1","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/10a93e0ebf3ba735c31f229bbbf8c2e3.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/uk/en/product/GBX1201000553F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-1001-14arcmin-260-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1201000553F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the noise level of GBX1201000553F?","answer":"The gearbox is rated at 65 dB at 1 m, no-load.
