More than enough to snap a hardened steel output shaft (without shock-loading). Ask me how I know...
In 2005 we used an XRP transmission with two FP motors geared down something like 10:1 or 20:1 in low gear to actuate our arm. Emperical data suggests that output torques of 500-1000in-lbs are doable. One must figure that, at a minimum, they could handle a 775-18 operating at 18V, which in low gear is around 490in-lb of output torque.
