The BGL MS series lock washer is a safety element that secures the HM nut of a large mounting sleeve, preventing it from loosening due to vibration or rotation. It is placed over the nut and secured with a screw, locking the assembly. It is a key part in bearings mounted on tapered sleeves, where the nut must stay in position to maintain correct tightening and clearance.
The MS series designation is read as a range: each code MS…##…-MS…### indicates a pair of sizes or positions that the lock washer covers. For example, MS3048-MS3052 and MS3064-MS3068 correspond to different combinations of HM nuts. The numeric suffixes refer to the sleeve size and the associated nut. To choose the correct lock washer, you must identify the HM nut of the sleeve and check which MS code corresponds to it.
These lock washers are used in industries such as metallurgy, cement, mining and food processing, in equipment with bearings mounted on tapered sleeves: gearboxes, mills, conveyor belts, pumps and fans. In Argentina, they are common in plants where positive locking of the nut is required to prevent loosening due to vibration or alternating loads.
To select the lock washer, verify that the MS code corresponds to the HM nut of the sleeve. Installation requires cleaning the threads, applying the recommended torque to the nut and then fitting the lock washer with its screw, ensuring that the tab or tongue engages in a groove of the nut. Lubrication of the sleeve and alignment of the bearing are essential prior steps.
BGL MS lock washers are interchangeable with those of other brands that use the same designation, as long as the sleeve diameter and the HM nut type match. When requesting a quote, indicate the MS code or the HM nut number to receive the equivalent part. MR Accesorios Industriales sells the BGL line as exclusive representative in Argentina.
