It delivers a maximum output torque of 6372.5 lbf.in (720 N.m) at 100 rpm and 86 °F (30 °C), with a continuous output torque of 3982.8 lbf.in (450 N.m) under the same conditions. The 94 % efficiency figure means 6 % of input power is lost as heat inside the gearbox — relevant for thermal management in a sealed enclosure. Service life is rated at 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with the gearbox lubricated for life, so no maintenance oil changes are needed over that span. ## Mechanical limits — axial and radial load capacity Maximum axial force Fa is 6000 N at 100 rpm for the full 30,000-hour service life, or 8000 N if the application accepts a shorter 10,000-hour life. Maximum radial force Fr is 4200 N at 100 rpm for 30,000 hours, or 6000 N for 10,000 hours, with the force applied at the midpoint of the output shaft. Torsional rigidity is 38 N.m/arcmin — this stiffness figure governs positioning accuracy under load. Maximum torsional backlash is 6 arc.min, which sets the lost motion in a reversing or positioning axis. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete but available through independent channels Schneider Electric lists the GBX1600050701F as obsolete. The part is sourced through independent surplus and broker channels — quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. The gearbox carries IP54 protection at the shaft output, operates in ambient temperatures from -25 to 90 °C, and uses a black anodized aluminium housing with a C45 steel shaft. Noise level is 70 dB at 1 m under no-load conditions.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1600050701F planetary gearbox","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1600050701F planetary gearbox, 5:1 reduction, 720 N.m max torque, 94% efficiency, 30,000 h service life.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"70 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"5:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"38 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"6372.5 lbf.in (720 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":"6000 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 8000 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"4200 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 6000 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"3982.8 lbf.in (450 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"6.3 in (160 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"6 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/d77964f8455e8048c994ef6864ab522f.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX1600050701F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-160-mm-reduction-51-6arcmin-450-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1600050701F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What are the key torque ratings for GBX1600050701F?","answer":"Maximum output torque is 6372.5 lbf.in (720 N.m) at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
