The SKF lock ring is an accessory that mounts on split housings to secure the bearing axially and prevent it from shifting inside the housing. It is used in equipment where the shaft position must remain stable, such as conveyors, fans or pumps. At MR Accesorios Industriales we carry this SKF accessory line; if you need the correct part number, write to us on WhatsApp and we'll help you identify it.
SKF lock rings are designated with numeric codes that combine the housing size and the position. For example, 35072-20 and 35072-40 share the base 35072, which identifies the housing, while the suffix -20 or -40 indicates the mounting variant. Similarly, 36053-50 and 36053-159 correspond to the 36053 series with different suffixes. Knowing these codes is key to ordering the exact replacement.
These rings are used in industries such as food, cement, mining and processing, where SKF split housings are common. In Argentina, they are found in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers and milling equipment. Their function is to keep the bearing in its axial position, which reduces wear and prevents premature failures due to shifting.
To select the correct ring, take into account the type and size of the SKF housing, the bearing series and the mounting configuration. It is important to verify that the ring is compatible with the shaft diameter and the housing. During mounting, make sure the ring seats correctly and that the locking screws are tightened according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Proper lubrication and precise alignment extend the service life of the assembly.
SKF lock rings may have equivalents with products from other brands, but dimensions and tolerances can vary. Always verify interchangeability by consulting the technical specifications. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you on compatibility with other brands we carry, but remember that each application is particular and requires confirmation.
