Basis Of Presentation	'
	BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet of Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 29, 2012, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 28, 2013 and for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.
	It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on March 26, 2013.
	In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial results have been made. Except as otherwise discussed, such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 28, 2013.
	The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company uses estimates in accounting for, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts; excess and obsolete inventory; share-based compensation; acquisitions; product warranty obligations, pension assets and liabilities, derivative fair values, goodwill impairment, health care, retirement benefits, litigation claims and contingencies and income taxes. The Company accounts for changes to estimates and assumptions when warranted by factually based experience.
	The Company operates on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31.
	As of the beginning of 2013, the Company adopted new guidance that requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. This information enables users of an entity's financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments. This new guidance is applicable to the Company's derivative instruments. See Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
	As of the beginning of 2013, the Company adopted new guidance that requires footnote disclosures on a prospective basis regarding the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss by component and the line items affected in the statements of income. See Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
	As of the beginning of 2013, the Company changed its inventory valuation method for the finished goods of recently acquired North American businesses to the LIFO method from the FIFO method. The Company believes the change to the LIFO method is preferable because it will improve matching of current costs with revenues when there is volatility in the cost of raw materials, and is consistent with the method used for the majority of the Company’s other North American finished goods inventory. Prior period consolidated financial statements have not been retrospectively adjusted. The cumulative effect of this change was immaterial.

		$	750
	-1	Interest rates vary as LIBOR varies. At September 28, 2013, the interest rate was 0.9%.
	In 2008, the Company entered into a Term Loan Agreement (“Term Loan”) with certain financial institutions, whereby it borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $165.0 million. Prior to 2013, the Company repaid $110.0 million of the Term Loan. The final $55.0 million payment was made in June 2013 when the loan matured.
	The Company has a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that matures in June 2016. The Facility permits the Company to borrow at interest rates based upon a margin above LIBOR. The margin varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA, net of specified cash, as defined in the Facility. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. The Company pays a commitment fee on the unused amount of the Facility, which also varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA. At September 28, 2013, the Company had no outstanding balance on the Facility, $23.5 million of standby letters of credit issued under the Facility and $476.5 million of available borrowing capacity.
	Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities, credit risks, and terms, which are classified as Level 2 inputs, the approximate fair value of the Company's debt was $785.5 million and $859.6 million as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively.
	At September 28, 2013, other notes payable of $18.7 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 2.7%.
	The Notes and the Facility require the Company to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. The Company was in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of September 28, 2013.
	The Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk. (See also Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

	INCOME TAXES
	The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 28, 2013 was 21.6% versus 24.5% for the three months ended September 29, 2012. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 28, 2013 was 23.3% versus 27.4% for the nine months ended September 29, 2012. The change in the third quarter effective rate was primarily driven by the favorable adjustments related to the finalization of the 2012 U.S. Federal income tax return and the global distribution of earnings, compared to the third quarter 2012. The change in the nine month effective rate was driven by the same factors as the third quarter as well as the by the 2012 research and development retroactive reinstatement which was recorded in the first quarter of 2013. The lower effective rate as compared to the 35.0% statutory Federal income tax rate is driven by lower foreign tax rates.
	As of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, the Company had approximately $4.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would affect its effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
	The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. U.S. federal tax returns from 2010 through 2012 and various state and foreign tax returns remain subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities.

	The Company recognized approximately $2.9 million and $2.3 million in share-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012, respectively. Share based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012 was $8.3 million and $6.7 million, respectively. The total excess income tax benefit recognized relating to share-based compensation for the nine months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012 was approximately $0.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award. As of September 28, 2013, total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was approximately $25.9 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 2.6 years.
	On April 29, 2013, the Company's shareholders approved the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan ("2013 Plan"). The 2013 Plan authorizes the issuance of 3.5 million shares of common stock for equity-based awards, and terminates any further grants under prior equity plans.
	Approximately 3.0 million shares were available for future grant or payment under the 2013 Plan at September 28, 2013.
	Share-based Incentive Awards
	The Company uses several forms of share-based incentive awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). All grants are made at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant dates, and expire 10 years from the grant date.
	The majority of the Company’s annual share-based incentive awards are made in the fiscal second quarter. For the nine month period ended September 28, 2013, and September 29, 2012, respectively, 174,775 and 255,225 share-based incentive awards were granted. The per share weighted average fair value of share-based incentive awards granted during those respective periods was $23.01 and $22.45.
	The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation related to grants were as follows:
			September 28,			September 29,

	The Company also grants equity-based awards including restricted stock (“RSA”) awards, restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards and performance unit (“PSU”) awards. Such awards are valued using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant or, for PSUs, based on a Monte Carlo simulation value. Restrictions generally lapse three years after the date of grant (or one year in the case of certain RSA grants to directors).
	Changes in restricted stock awards for the nine months ended September 28, 2013 were as follows:

	CONTINGENCIES
	One of the Company’s subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units marketed by a third party. These claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. Based on the current facts, the Company does not believe these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on its interim consolidated financial statements as a whole.
	The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation that arises in the normal course of its business operations, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. The Company’s products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject the Company to claims that the use of its products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. The Company accrues for exposures in amounts that it believes are adequate, and the Company does not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on the Company's financial position, its results of operations or its cash flows.
	The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on its products at the time of sale. The amount recognized is based on historical experience.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]	'
Derivative Instruments	'
	DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
	The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are commodity price, currency exchange and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on certain commodities are entered into to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in the Company’s manufacturing process. Forward contracts on certain currencies are entered into to manage forecasted cash flows in certain foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s floating rate borrowings.
	The Company must recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company designates commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities, currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency cash flows and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments. There were no significant collateral deposits on derivative financial instruments as of September 28, 2013.
	Cash flow hedges
	For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or changes in market value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized in current earnings. All derivative instruments used by the Company impact operating cash flows.
	At September 28, 2013, the Company had $(1.8) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At December 29, 2012, the Company had $(0.3) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that was realized in earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.
	As of September 28, 2013, the Company had outstanding the following commodity forward contracts (with maturities extending through December 2014) to hedge forecasted purchases of commodities (notional amounts expressed in terms of the dollar value of the hedged item in millions):
		Notional

Fair Value	'
	FAIR VALUE
	The Company uses a three-tier hierarchy to assess the inputs used to measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities.
	Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
	Level 2	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or
		Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
		Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
	Level 3	Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
	The Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
	The fair value of the Company's cash equivalents, term deposits, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated book value as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively, due to their short-term nature. See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure of the approximate fair value of the Company's debt at September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012.
	The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (in millions):

	The Company’s derivative contracts are valued at fair value using the market or income approaches. The Company measures the fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts using Level 2 inputs based on observable spot and forward rates in active markets. The Company measures the fair value of commodity contracts using Level 2 inputs through observable market transactions in active markets provided by financial institutions. The Company measures the fair value of investments using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets. The Company measures the fair value of interest rate swaps using Level 2 inputs in an income approach for valuation based on expected interest rate yield curves over the remaining duration of the interest rate swaps. During the nine months ended September 28, 2013, there were no transfers between classification Levels 1, 2 or 3.

	The Level 3 liabilities described above are comprised entirely of the deferred contingent purchase price of the Company’s acquisitions and are measured using Level 3 inputs. The contingent consideration, payable in cash, is based upon sales or earnings before interest and income taxes for the acquired businesses for the applicable contingency period. The fair value of the contingent consideration is a Level 3 input; the measurement of which is derived using a probability weighted discounted cash flow analysis. The Company has estimated that the maximum contingent amount will be paid under all agreements so the key assumption is the estimated timing of the payments and the discount rates. The discounted cash flow utilized risk-based discount rates ranging from approximately 5.0% to 8.0%.
