About KMT and KMTA Designed for frequent installation and
lock nuts removal
KMT and KMTA lock nuts are intended for

applications where high precision, simple
assembly and reliable locking are required*.
The three equally-spaced locking pins enable
these lock nuts to be accurately positioned at
right angles to the shaft. However, they can
also be adjusted to compensate for slight
angular deviations of adjacent components.
KMT lock nuts are available for shaft
diameters ranging from 10 to 420 mm
(thread M 10 to Tr 420). KMTA lock nuts are
available for shaft diameters ranging from
25 to 200 mm (thread M 25 to M 200).
KMTA lock nuts have a cylindrical outside
surface and, for some sizes, a different
thread pitch than KMT lock nuts. They are
intended primarily for applications where
space is limited and the cylindrical outside
surface can be used as an element of a gap-
type seal.
KMT and KMTA lock nuts are secured by three Adjustable to minimise axial run-out

KMT and KMTA precision lock nuts
Installation and removal Fig. 1

KMT precision lock nuts have slots around
their circumference to accommodate a hook
or impact spanner ( fig. 1). The designa-
tions of the appropriate spanners are listed
in the product tables ( page 18).
For more information about the appropri-
ate spanner, see section Tools on page 66.
In addition to the slots, KMT lock nuts with a
thread 75 mm (size 15) have two opposed
flats to accommodate a spanner. KMT lock
nuts with a thread 80 mm (size 16) have
six slots and no flats.
KMTA precision lock nuts have holes
around their circumference and in one side
face ( fig. 2). They can be tightened with Fig. 2
a pin wrench or a pin type face spanner.
Appropriate spanners in accordance with
DIN 1810 are listed in the product tables
( page 20).
Installation
1 With the bearing in position, screw the
lock nut into place.
2 Tighten the nut with a hook or impact
spanner making sure to not over tighten
it.
3 Tighten the grub screws carefully until the
locking pins engage the shaft thread.
4 Tighten the grub screws alternately with
a torque wrench until the recommended
torque value is achieved ( product
tables, page 20).
Adjustment
KMT and KMTA lock nuts are adjustable. The
three equally-spaced locking pins enable
these lock nuts to be accurately positioned
at right angles to the shaft. However, they
can also be adjusted to compensate for
slight angular deviations of adjacent compo-
nents. Adjustments can be made using the
following procedure ( fig. 3, page 16):

4 Check that the alignment of the nut, rela-
tive to the shaft, is currently as required.

Loosening torque KMT and KMTA lock nuts are locked on the shaft (sleeve) by friction. The friction, and therefore the
loosening torque, varies as a result of the accuracy of the tightening torque of the grub screw, the
surface finish of the shaft thread, the amount of lubricant on the thread, etc. KMT and KMTA lock nuts
should be properly mounted to threads that are dry or only have a minimum amount of lubricant on
them.
For additional information about loosening torques, contact the SKF application engineering service.
Note Providing that they are properly mounted to a dry or minimally lubricated thread, experience has
shown that SKF KMT and KMTA lock nuts have sufficient locking for typical precision and general
rolling bearing applications.

Loosening torque KMD lock nuts are locked on the shaft by friction. The friction, and therefore the loosening torque, varies as
a result of the accuracy of the tightening torque of the axial locking screws, the surface finish of the shaft
(sleeve) thread, the amount of lubricant on the thread, etc. The KMD lock nuts should be properly mounted
to threads that are dry or only have a minimum amount of lubricant on them.
For additional information about loosening torques, contact the SKF application engineering service.
Note Providing that they are properly mounted to a dry or minimally lubricated thread, SKF KMD lock nuts have
sufficient locking for precision and general rolling bearing applications.

no keyway is required. Installation is also
quicker and easier because no separate
locking device is necessary. All SKF industrial
lock nuts have slots around their circumfer-

KMK series lock nuts ( fig. 1) have a
threaded steel insert in their bore, to lock
the nut in place on the shaft ( fig. 2). The
threads on the insert match the lock nut
threads. The insert acts as a pressure plate
when the grub (set) screw, which runs
through the body of the lock nut, is
tightened.

KMFE metric lock nuts

with a locking screw
KMFE series lock nuts ( fig. 5) use an
integral grub (set) screw to lock the nut in
place ( fig. 6). When the grub screw is
tightened, it causes the nut thread to de-
form and press against the shaft or sleeve
thread. The resulting friction is sufficient to
lock the nut in place. When the grub screw is
loosened, the nut thread will return to its
original shape KMFE lock nuts

About KM, KML, HMT Ordering information

metric lock nuts KM, KML, HMT, lock nuts and MB lock
washers must be ordered separately.
KM and KML lock nuts have metric threads
( fig. 10) and are designed to be used
with lock washers. They have four equally
spaced slots located around their circumfer-
ence to accommodate a hook or impact
spanner ( fig. 11). These lock nuts are
also referred to as shaft or withdrawal nuts. Fig. 8 Fig. 9
KML lock nuts have a lower sectional
height than KM lock nuts. Lock nuts in the
KM and KML series are available for shaft
(thread M 10 to M 200). Lock nuts can be
locked with either the MB lock washer listed
in the lock nut product tables ( page 40)
or with a stronger, MB .. A lock washer
listed in the lock washer product tables
( page 42).
HM .. T lock nuts, have metric trapezoidal
threads ( fig. 10). For some sizes no lock
washer is available because these nuts are
intended to dismount bearings with a ta-
pered bore from a withdrawal sleeve. These Fig. 10 Fig. 11
lock nuts are also referred to as removal
nuts.
HM ..T lock nuts are available for shaft
(thread Tr 210 to Tr 280).
KM, KML, HMT lock nuts can be reused,
provided they are not damaged. A new lock
washer should be used each time the cor-
responding lock nut is installed.
37
Installation
KM, KML, HMT lock nuts are easy to in-
stall. Each nut is provided with four equally
spaced slots around their circumference to
accommodate a hook or impact spanner.
Appropriate spanner sizes are listed in the
product tables ( page 40). For more
information about the appropriate spanner,
see section Tools on page 66.
KM, KML, HMT lock nuts can be reused,
provided they are not damaged. A new lock
responding lock nut is reinstalled.
Mounting bearings and components on a

cylindrical shaft

spanner ( fig. 13) until the correct
clearance in the bearing is obtained.
4 Remove the nut. Go to step 5.
Locking the bearing

5 With the bearing in position, place the
lock washer onto the shaft ( fig. 14).
screw the lock nut into place.
7 Tighten the nut firmly against the lock
washer and bearing with a hook or impact
spanner, making sure to not over tighten
Fig. 14 Fig. 15
the nut. For bearings on adapter sleeves
or tapered shafts, make sure that the
bearing is not driven up any further on its
seat.
8 Lock the nut in place by bending one of
the lock washer tabs down into one of the
slots on the nut ( fig. 15). Do not bend
the tab to the bottom of the slot.

spanners are suitable for all lock nuts con-
forming to the DIN 981 standard.
HN series hook spanners
Hook spanners in the HN series ( fig. 33)
are available in 15 different sizes. The series
is based on the DIN 1810 standard that Fig. 34
combines certain spanner sizes. The HN se- HN 4-16/SET
ries is suitable for tightening or loosening
KM lock nuts conforming to DIN 981 stand-
ard up to size KM 22. Additionally, they are
suitable for use with AN, N, KMK, KMFE and
KMT lock nuts as well as nuts manufactured
according to the DIN 1804 standard.
Hook spanner set HN 4-16/SET

In addition to single spanners, HN series
spanners are available as a set, HN 4-16/
SET ( fig. 34), containing the nine most
popular sizes, HN 4 up to HN 16. The span-
ners are contained in a sturdy carrying case
( fig. 1). Fig. 35
Hook spanners HN/SNL series

Hook spanners in HN/SNL series ( fig. 35)
are specially designed to tighten and loosen
KM, KML, N, AN, KMK, KMFE and KMT lock
nuts with outside diameters ranging from
38 to 210 mm (1.5 to 8.3 in). The HN/SNL

TMFS lock nut sockets Fig. 37 Fig. 38

TMFS lock nut sockets ( fig. 37) are used
to tighten and loosen KM and KMK series
lock nuts. The sockets are available in 21
different sizes and are suitable for bearings
with a bore diameter between 10 and
100 mm. The sockets are an alternative to
hook spanners and make the use of power
tools or torque wrenches possible. Larger
sizes and deep well sockets are available on
request.
TMFN impact spanners

TMFN impact spanners ( fig. 38) are used
to tighten and loosen the lock nuts used to Fig. 39
locate large bearings mounted on tapered
journals, adapter or withdrawal sleeves. The
impact spanners are designed to fit a num-
ber of different nut sizes, and are suitable
for KM, HM .. T, HML .. T, HM 30.., HM 31..,
AN and N lock nuts.
TMHN 7 spanners
It is essential, when mounting self-aligning
bearings on adapter sleeves, to obtain the
correct internal radial clearance. Failure to
do so will have a negative impact on bearing
performance, which could lead to premature
bearing failure. To avoid these problems,
SKF has designed a set of seven spanners
( fig. 39 and table 7) to fit KM lock nuts
size 5 to 11. Each spanner is clearly marked
with the correct tightening angle, to facilitate
drive-up and to maintain the recommended
radial clearance after locking the lock nut
onto the shaft. The spanner engages the nut
in four places.
