Overview
B103 26.51:1 bevel helical gearbox with a 50mm hollow bore output and 132B5 IEC motor input for compact 90° right-angle drive integration.
Designed to handle demanding loads, it combines efficient gearing with robust construction for reliable 90° transmission in compact machine layouts.
Mid reduction: This mid reduction ratio delivers a balanced speed-to-torque profile, supporting steady running under load for conveyors, general handling systems, and continuous-duty machinery.
Need the non-standard 45mm bore option?
If your application requires a 45mm output bore instead of the standard 50mm, we can supply this as a non-standard configuration. View available B103 options and request the 45mm version here: Motovario B103 Gearbox.

Output Speed (4-Pole vs 2-Pole Motors)
Calculated nominal output speed using a standard IEC motor:
| Motor Type | Input Speed (rpm) | Estimated Output Speed (rpm) |
|---|---|---|
| 4-Pole | 1400 | ~53 rpm |
| 2-Pole | 2800 | ~106 rpm |
Need torque confirmation? Output torque depends on motor power (kW), gearbox efficiency, and service factor. Use our Gearbox Service Factor Calculator or contact us for verified torque figures.

Ratio Selection Tips
- Best for: balanced duties where speed control and torque both matter — strong choice for production conveyors, turntables, light mixers, and general materials handling.
- Selection tip: for general machinery, mid reduction gives stable control — verify continuous torque demand and pick the ratio that keeps the motor in its efficient speed range.
FAQ
Is this a good general-purpose ratio?
Yes — mid reduction ratios are typically the best balance for many machines, providing controlled speed with useful torque multiplication.
How do I choose between two close ratios?
Pick the ratio that keeps your target output speed closest at the motor speed you’ll actually run (direct-on-line or via VFD), then confirm required torque and service factor.
Configuration Notes
- Input flange note: the 132B5 IEC input is built for high-power motor pairings, delivering strong input torque capacity for demanding conveyors and process machinery.
- Output bore note: the 50mm hollow shaft bore is a common industrial size for conveyors and handling equipment, offering a strong shaft interface for torque transmission.
- Application example: Example use: general materials handling conveyor where you need stable running under load across long shifts.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor and line-shaft drive systems
- Automated production and assembly lines
- Food and beverage processing machinery
- Materials handling and logistics equipment
- Pumps, mixers, and agitator drives
- OEM machine and equipment builds
