Torque limiters protect high-powered equipment from mechanical overloads caused by excess torque. Learn how torque limiter couplings help prevent damaged equipment and unplanned downtime.

Regal Rexnord has committed years of research and development to enable our customers to run dry and reduce lubricant and water consumption. With the Regal Rexnord Dry Run 60 Series TableTop Chain in 7.5-inch and 3.25-inch width, we are able to provide a complete portfolio of run dry solutions in modular plastic and tabletop.

At Regal Rexnord®, service has always been a top priority and a competitive advantage, and we take pride in our ability to make high-quality products available when our customers need them. Discuss your Cylindrical Roller Bearing needs.

Customers often ask about our product nomenclature for cylindrical roller bearings: the numbers and letters that determine a product description. Here’s the "inside story."

Regal Rexnord® has developed an internal program to analyze a cylindrical roller bearing under a given duty cycle to determine the probability that a selected bearing will meet the life requirement of the specific system. The program accounts for ring and roller crowning and calculates loads, which are affected by the component geometry.

Using the Regal Rexnord power transmission analysis with duty cycle gearbox life and reliability calculation techniques, we can select and optimize the proper bearing type to maximize the support bearing’s life potential for your gearbox, keeping your trucks on the road.

It is not uncommon for cylindrical roller bearings to require modifications to meet the demands of a particular application. Heavy loads, high speeds, poor lubrication parameters, dissimilar housing/shaft materials and unique mounting conditions all may require modifications or adjustments. 

Regal Rexnord is constantly developing self-service eTools to help you select, configure to quote, and obtain 2D and 3D CAD models without ever having to pick up the phone or email.

Composite shafting for long span applications isn’t new. Especially within cooling tower applications, composite shaft couplings, such as Addax disc couplings, have been widely accepted as the standard for years. However, because of concerns about strength, they haven’t been widely adopted for applications in industries such as oil and gas, pulp and paper, wastewater treatment and general industry.

Rexnord PT Select bearings are equipped with a smart tag, which provides a great deal of information about the product, along with additional benefits that can simplify installation, streamline maintenance, speed reordering and replacement and register your product to extend warranties.
