Rexnord: Industrial Chain, Bearing, and Conveying Solutions

Rexnord Corporation, now part of Zurn Elkay Water Solutions (following the 2022 merger of Rexnord's water management business with Elkay), maintains its industrial components brand identity through the Regal Rexnord corporation formed by the merger of Rexnord's Process & Motion Control segment with Regal Beloit. With roots tracing back to 1892 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Rexnord has over 130 years of industrial engineering heritage. The industrial components division manufactures conveyor chains, bearings, couplings, and gear drives that keep heavy industry moving worldwide.

Rexnord's strength is in heavy-duty power transmission and material handling components designed for the most demanding operating conditions—high loads, abrasive environments, extreme temperatures, and continuous operation. Their products are engineered to outperform and outlast in the toughest industrial applications.

Rexnord Products Available Through RAZZ Middle East

Industrial Chain

Rexnord manufactures one of the most comprehensive industrial chain ranges available. Rex roller chain (ANSI standard) covers single through quadruple strand in sizes from #25 to #240. Rexnord MatTop modular plastic belting serves food processing, packaging, and material handling conveyor surfaces. TableTop chains handle bottle, can, and package conveying in beverage and food processing lines. Engineered steel chains serve cement, steel, and mining applications where standard roller chain cannot survive.

Bearings and Bearing Housings

Rexnord Link-Belt mounted bearings are a mainstay of industrial bearing applications. Pillow block bearings, flange bearings, and take-up bearings in cast iron and stainless steel housings serve conveyor systems, fans, pumps, and general industrial equipment. Sealmaster bearings provide cost-effective solutions for lighter-duty applications. Rexnord ZAF spherical roller bearing housed units handle the heaviest loads in mining, steel, and cement applications.

Couplings

Rexnord Thomas disc couplings provide zero-backlash power transmission for turbomachinery and high-speed equipment. Rexnord Omega elastomeric couplings handle general industrial pump and motor connections. Falk Steelflex grid couplings provide vibration damping and overload protection for heavy industrial drives. Falk Lifelign gear couplings serve high-torque applications in steel mills and heavy process equipment.

Gear Drives

Rexnord Falk V-Class gear drives provide parallel shaft and right-angle drives in torques up to 2,500,000 lb-in. Falk Quadrive shaft-mounted speed reducers serve conveyor belt drives. These heavy-duty gear drives are designed for the mining, cement, aggregate, and heavy industrial markets that demand reliability in continuous, high-load service.

Rexnord in Saudi Arabia

Rexnord products serve Saudi Arabia's heavy industrial applications. Ma'aden mining operations use Rexnord engineered chains, bearings, and gear drives on conveyor systems, crushers, and material handling equipment. Saudi cement plants deploy Rexnord chains and bearings on kiln drives, cooler floors, and clinker conveyors. Aramco facilities use Rexnord couplings and bearings on rotating equipment. SABIC petrochemical plants install Rexnord bearings and couplings on process machinery.

The harsh Saudi operating environment—extreme heat, sand and dust exposure, continuous operation—favors Rexnord's heavy-duty design philosophy. Their products are engineered to survive where lighter-duty alternatives fail prematurely.
