Overview
B103 132.87:1 bevel gearbox with a 50mm hollow bore output and 160B5 IEC motor input for compact 90° right-angle drive integration.
Engineered for continuous-duty industrial service, it provides smooth power transmission, stable output speed control, and dependable torque delivery in demanding environments.
Very high reduction: With very high reduction at 132.87:1 you achieve maximum torque and ultra-low output speed for demanding duty such as heavy conveyors, rotary valves, and high-inertia applications requiring stable motion.
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 | ~11 rpm |
| 2-Pole | 2800 | ~21 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: ultra-low speed, high-torque duties — suited to heavy conveyors, dosing systems, and high-inertia applications where control and stability matter more than speed.
- Selection tip: very high ratios are for maximum torque — verify load inertia, stopping requirements, and whether braking (mechanical or VFD) is needed to control overrun.
FAQ
Is a very high ratio suitable for heavy conveyors?
Yes — very high ratios are commonly used where maximum pulling power and stable, low-speed motion are required.
Do I need to worry about stopping/overrun?
Yes — with high inertia loads, consider braking (mechanical brake or VFD braking) and confirm holding/overrun requirements to keep motion controlled.
Configuration Notes
- Input flange note: with a 160B5 flange, this setup suits heavy-duty drives requiring higher input torque handling and stable continuous operation.
- 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: bulk handling drive where controlled start/stop and high pulling power are critical.
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
