It delivers 450 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent rating of 720 N.m under the same conditions. Torsional backlash is held to 6 arc.min maximum, and torsional rigidity is rated at 38 N.m/arcmin — figures that matter for positioning accuracy in indexing or pick-and-place applications where load reversal occurs. ## Load ratings and service life at 100 rpm Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with the gearbox lubricated for life — no maintenance oil changes. Maximum axial force (Fa) is 6000 N for the full 30,000-hour life, or 8000 N if the application accepts a 10,000-hour service window. Maximum radial force (Fr) applied at mid-span on the output shaft is 4200 N for 30,000 hours, or 6000 N for 10,000 hours. Efficiency is listed at 94 %, and noise level at 70 dB measured at 1 m under no-load conditions. ## Obsolete — sourced through independent channels Schneider Electric has marked the GBX1600080551F as obsolete. The gearbox is available through independent surplus and broker channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1600080551F Planetary Gearbox, 8:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1600080551F planetary gearbox, 8:1 ratio, 450 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":"70 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"8:1","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/a38aa957c5af5bfe514323213b4ec208.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX1600080551F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-160-mm-reduction-81-6arcmin-450-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1600080551F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What are the key torque ratings for GBX1600080551F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 450 N.m (3982.8 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
