Need a simple and stable fastening element to fix bearings in place? Use this lock nut from SKF to complete your bearing assembly. It handles static axial loads of up to 54kN, so suits heavy-duty applications. The four equally placed slots on its 39.8mm outer diameter let you firmly attach a washer. This keeps the bearing and lock nut in place by engaging the shaft keyway or an adaptor sleeve thread.

• Lightweight at 55g so it won't strain your system
• Thread size of 24.613mm for use with small and medium-sized motors

You'll need an HN-series spanner (204-4539) and a washer to install this fastening element. To establish a secure connection, slip the nut and the washer next to each other on the shaft of your motor. Once in place, use the spanner to press the washer's outer tabs into the lock nut's slots.

Yes, you can reuse the nut providing it isn't damaged during use or removal. Always use a new washer to establish a secure connection when you refit it.
