No official successor is recorded — this is a straight-to-surplus-channel part. Any remaining stock is what's already in the channel — no factory replenishment. Rated for 800 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. That is the sustained load it can carry across a shift without overheating the lubricant or exceeding the 30000-hour service life target. Peak capability reaches 1280 N.m at the same speed and temperature — a 60 % overload margin for acceleration or momentary jams. The torsional rigidity of 41 N.m/arcmin tells you how much windup the gear train has under load: at full continuous torque the shaft twists about 19.5 arcmin, which matters for positioning accuracy in a closed-loop servo system. Maximum backlash is 10 arcmin — straight-tooth planetary stages inherently carry more lash than helical. For a pick-and-place or indexing axis this is acceptable; for a precision contouring path the repeatability error at reversal may be too high. ## Mechanical integration — shaft loads and sealing The output shaft is C45 steel in a black anodised aluminium housing, 160 mm outer diameter. Rated axial force is 6000 N for the 30000-hour life window, climbing to 8000 N if you accept a 10000-hour life. Radial force applied mid-shaft is 4200 N for the longer life, 6000 N for the shorter. IP54 at the shaft output — it keeps dust and splashing water out of the seal lip, but it's not washdown-rated. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no oil-change interval to schedule. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C; efficiency is 94 %, with noise at 70 dB at 1 m under no-load.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1600320702F planetary gearbox, 32:1","metaDescription":"Obsolete Schneider Electric GBX1600320702F planetary gearbox. 32:1 reduction, 800 N.m continuous torque at 100 rpm.","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":"32:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"41 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"11328.9 lbf.in (1280 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":"7080.6 lbf.in (800 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":"10 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/ab9b10ec622764707dc36831eb0690df.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX1600320702F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-160-mm-reduction-321-10arcmin-800-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1600320702F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of GBX1600320702F?","answer":"The continuous output torque is 800 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient.
