The SKF TMFT mounting kit is a tool designed to install bearings by cold impact in a controlled manner. It includes impact rings and a sleeve that distribute the impact force over the correct ring, preventing damage to raceways and rolling elements. It is a practical solution for maintenance workshops that need to mount bearings without a hydraulic press or heating. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this SKF line with technical advice to choose the right kit according to the bearing to be mounted.

The designation of TMFT kits combines the bearing outer diameter and the width of the ring to be mounted. For example, TMFT 33-C40/68 indicates a kit for bearings with an outer diameter between 40 and 68 mm, while TMFT 36 C45-75 covers a similar range but with variations in the ring configuration. The numeric suffixes after the letter C specify the size of the sleeve and the rings included. In practice, the code tells you which bearing size the kit is for, so check the outer diameter and width of the bearing you are going to mount before choosing.

These kits are used in industries such as food, cement, mining, oil and power generation, where bearings are frequently mounted and dismounted. In Argentina, mechanical maintenance workshops and production plants use them to change bearings in pumps, electric motors, gearboxes, conveyor belts and fans. They are also common in the railway sector and in the automotive industry, where controlled impact mounting remains a common practice when heating equipment is not available.

To select the correct kit, take into account the outer diameter and width of the bearing, as well as the type of fit. The sleeve must rest on the ring that will remain fixed, never on the rolling elements. During mounting, apply gentle, distributed blows with a rubber hammer or bronze mallet, checking that the bearing enters perpendicular to the shaft. Prior lubrication of the seat facilitates placement and prevents damage. If the bearing is large or the fit is very tight, consider heating the bearing in oil or using an induction heater.

SKF TMFT kits are compatible with bearings from other brands as long as the outer diameter and width dimensions match. However, verify that the design of the sleeve and rings is suitable for the type of bearing (deep groove ball, cylindrical roller, etc.). Equivalent kits from other manufacturers exist on the market, but the designation may vary. If you have doubts, ask us with the bearing code and we will tell you which TMFT kit corresponds to it.
