BGL KM series lock nuts are precision accessories that secure adapter sleeves, bearings, gears and pulleys on the shaft. Their nodular cast iron design allows firm tightening with less effort and reduces the risk of seizing during removal. They are combined with MB washers or MS locks for positive locking. MR Accesorios Industriales sells them in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more than 80 years of experience in the field.

The KM series designation is read as KM followed by a number indicating the size: from KM0 up to KM7 and beyond. That number is not a direct diameter, but a reference that correlates with the diameter of the adapter sleeve or shaft where it is mounted. The usual suffixes, such as those appearing in the stainless steel variants, indicate the material or surface treatment. To identify the exact part, it is enough to provide the full part number and the shaft diameter.

These nuts are used in the food, chemical, petrochemical and general manufacturing industries, where rotating equipment demands reliable fastenings. They are common in pumps, gearboxes, fans, conveyor belts and machine tools. In plants in Argentina, from Buenos Aires to Córdoba or Rosario, they are found in production lines operating with bearings mounted on adapter sleeves. Their function is to maintain axial position and prevent the bearing from shifting due to vibrations or loads.

To select the correct nut, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of adapter sleeve and the locking method. The MB washer or MS lock must match the thread and diameter. During assembly, clean the threads, apply the recommended torque and verify that the washer fits into a shaft groove. The nodular cast iron of the KM series allows tightening with less effort and facilitates subsequent removal. If the environment is corrosive, choose the stainless steel variant.

KM lock nuts are interchangeable among manufacturers that follow the same dimensional standards. If the customer brings a part number from another brand, the equivalent can be found in the BGL KM series. The thread and pitch usually match, but it is always advisable to verify the diameter and the type of washer. MR Accesorios Industriales advises you so that the part is compatible with your equipment, regardless of the original brand.
