We design and build quality gears, gear boxes and special purpose machinery.
We are a member of AGMA and located in Southern Ontario.
Rapid Gear's engineering staff design new gears and reducers, both planetary and parallel in-line units.
Whether working on new gear assemblies or redesigning an out-dated or worn out assembly, Rapid Gear can provide its customers with assembly drawings, detailed drawings and complete parts lists.

Our skilled craftsmen are knowledgable at repairing, rebuilding and
restoring old gears and gear boxes to original specifications.
Our Exchange Program was designed to solve the following problems:

- The units are discontinued or replaced with new series.
- Parts are only available from over seas with long delivery times.
