Description
SKF MS 3176 is a locking clip reference, within Bushings and sleeves. Request a quote for MS 3176 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.
SKF MS designations correspond to lock clips for lock nuts. They are locking elements secured with a screw. They are identified by their full code and by the lock nut they work with.
The series includes designations with numbers, slashes and hyphens, such as MS 3052-48 and MS 30/500-96. Those characters are part of the designation and must be kept when requesting a quote. Do not infer the dimensions of the part from a fragment of the code or replace it with another that shares only the MS prefix.
The MS lock clip locks the lock nut: it fits into the groove of the adapter sleeve or shaft and is screwed to the face of the lock nut with a screw and washer.
To verify the part, send the full code of the lock nut and the existing clip. A photo of the assembly helps identify the mounting, but it does not replace the dimensional and compatibility check. Installation must follow the manufacturer's instructions for the selected combination. At MR you can check the designation and the required quantity via WhatsApp or email.
