Regal Rexnord couplings
Rexnord Autogard Torque Limiters
Autogard mechanical torque-limiting devices within Regal Rexnord - overload protection for driven equipment. This is a torque limiter product domain, not an ordinary flexible coupling family.
Autogard torque limiter overview
Autogard torque limiters are mechanical overload protection devices within the Regal Rexnord portfolio. They are designed to limit transmitted torque when jam or overload conditions occur, helping protect downstream equipment such as gearboxes, conveyors and driven machinery.
Not a coupling family
Autogard addresses torque limiting and overload protection — a distinct product domain from elastomeric, gear, grid or disc couplings. For flexible shaft connection products, review the Rexnord couplings hub and related families such as Omega or Lifelign.
Selection factors
Torque limiter selection typically considers release torque setting, bore capacity, mounting interface, operating speed and reset method per Autogard catalogue data. Provide installed equipment context when enquiring.
Typical applications
Conveyors, packaging lines, mixers and industrial drives where mechanical overload protection is specified to reduce damage from jam conditions. Application review should confirm duty and reset requirements against manufacturer guidance.
Engineering enquiry
Authorised Regal Rexnord distributor support for Autogard identification and quotation. Send application data.
Have a part number or designation?
Send manufacturer part numbers, bore sizes or coupling designations for engineering identification and quotation support. This is an identification/interchange enquiry—not a live stock lookup or availability confirmation.
Common questions
No. Autogard is a torque limiter line for overload protection. Flexible couplings transmit torque while accommodating misalignment; torque limiters protect equipment by limiting torque under fault conditions.
They serve different functions. If you need flexible shaft connection, select an appropriate coupling family. If you need overload protection, review Autogard torque limiter data for your duty. Send equipment details for engineering review.
