BGL HM series lock nuts are used to fasten bearings, gears, and pulleys onto shafts. They work with adapter sleeves and are secured using an MB lock washer or MS safety lock. Made from nodular cast iron, they allow smooth tightening and help prevent seizing during disassembly. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies these lock nuts to customers throughout the United States and Latin America.

The HM code identifies this family of lock nuts. For example, part numbers such as HM30/500, HM30/530, and HM30/560 combine the series with a number that indicates the nut size and thread, matching the sleeve and bearing with the same code—not the shaft diameter. This naming system makes it easy to select the correct nut for standard sleeves and bearings.

These lock nuts are found in industries such as metallurgy, food processing, cement, and mining. They are common in power transmission equipment including conveyor belts, mills, pumps, and fans. Their primary role is to hold components axially on shafts, preventing movement and maintaining stable operation under vibration or dynamic loads.

When selecting a lock nut, consider the shaft diameter, sleeve type, and locking method. The HM series is locked with an MB lock washer or MS safety lock to prevent loosening. During installation, apply the correct torque and check alignment. Nodular cast iron simplifies tightening and reduces effort, lowering the risk of damage when disassembling. Carbon steel or stainless steel versions are available on request for specific environments.

BGL HM series lock nuts are interchangeable with other brands that follow the same dimensional standards. If you have a part number from another manufacturer, MR Industrial Accessories LLC can provide the equivalent reference. Interchangeability is maintained as long as dimensions and thread type match.
