The BGL MS safety lock is a washer that is placed over the HM nut of a large sleeve and immobilizes it with a screw. Its function is to prevent the nut from loosening due to vibration or rotation, maintaining the bearing adjustment on the shaft. It is used in large sleeve assemblies, where the nut must be securely fixed.
The MS… designation identifies the lock by the size of the sleeve or nut it secures. Examples MS30/530, MS30/560, MS30/630, MS30/670, MS30/710 and MS30/750 cover different sleeve diameters; suffixes such as -600 or -800 indicate mounting variants or combinations with another size. To choose the correct lock, the code must match the sleeve and the HM nut you are going to fix.
These locks are used in equipment with bearings mounted on large-size sleeves: rolling mills, mills, conveyor belts, heavy gearboxes and mining or cement machinery. In Argentina, they are seen in steel, cement and oil & gas plants. Their function is critical: a nut that loosens can generate axial play, vibration and premature bearing damage.
For mounting, verify that the lock seats correctly on the HM nut and that the fixing screw has the proper torque. The contact surface must be clean and free of burrs. The lock is placed after tightening the nut with the corresponding wrench; the screw is tightened against the sleeve or the provided slot. Periodically check the tightness, especially in equipment with vibration.
BGL MS locks are interchangeable with those of other brands that use the same designation for HM nuts. If your equipment code does not match exactly, write to us with the original code and the sleeve size: we will quote you the equivalent lock. MR Accesorios Industriales sells the BGL line throughout Argentina.
To request a quote for your MS lock, send the complete code via WhatsApp. If you do not have it at hand, give us the sleeve diameter and the HM nut you want to fix. At MR Accesorios Industriales we will respond promptly with the exact reference.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between an MS lock and a common safety washer?
- The MS lock is specifically designed for HM nuts of large sleeves. It is fixed with a screw that prevents the nut from rotating, whereas a common safety washer does not have that positive locking function.
- How do I know which MS code corresponds to my sleeve?
- The MS code relates to the size of the sleeve or the HM nut. If you have the sleeve code, provide it and we will indicate the lock. If not, measure the diameter and consult us.
- How often should the tightness of the lock screw be checked?
- In equipment with vibration or variable loads, it is advisable to check the tightness at each preventive maintenance. If you detect axial play or noise, check the lock and the nut adjustment.
