High-Performance Coupling Recertification
We design all Regal Rexnord high-performance disc and diaphragm couplings from Kop-Flex, Ameridrives, Bibby Turboflex, Rexnord Euroflex, and Amerigear™ Class 1 gear couplings to last for the life of connected equipment. Operating equipment beyond design limits, however, may shorten a coupling's effective service life. This includes factors such as a high number of starts and increased misalignment.
Regal Rexnord’s High-Performance Coupling Recertification Service resets accumulated damage endured under severe loading conditions. For disc couplings and hardware, recertification replaces a coupling's flexible elements.
Coupling recertification is part of an effective proactive maintenance strategy, restoring couplings to a like-new condition for about half the cost of a replacement coupling. Coupling recertification ensures the reliable operation of critical rotating equipment.
Are you ensuring that your power equipment stays in peak operating condition and minimizing the costs of unplanned downtime, replacement parts and emergency labor with coupling recertification? Learn how recertification can help you!

Coupling Recertification
- Comprehensive mechanical/metallurgical inspection
- Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) on all torque transmitting components
- All potential wear components – metallic and gear flex elements, shims, and fasteners are refurbished or replaced to new performance standards
- Removal and repair of surface defects on a lathe and glass bead blasting as appropriate while maintaining original coupling integrity
- Precision dimensional and Total Indicator Run-out (TIR) measurement
- Rebalancing to original API 671 certification if applicable. This recertification requires the return of the entire coupling structure.
- Update design to current standards
- Replacement of flexible elements (disc packs) where applicable
- Provide evaluation report with detailed findings confirming the value of the recertification
- Package in custom wooden crate; long term storage protection options available
