The BGL HM…T lock nut holds bearings, gears and pulleys firmly in place on a shaft, usually together with an adapter sleeve. Nodular cast iron is used for the nut body, which makes it easier to tighten and lowers the chance of it sticking when the time comes to take it off. A matching MB washer or MS safety lock keeps it from working loose.
Read the code this way: HM marks the series, the figure after it gives the size, and the trailing T tells you the material is nodular cast iron. HM42T, HM44T and HM46T are three examples of that sizing. The material choice matters on the shop floor, because it lets the fitter reach the required tightness with less effort on the wrench.
Where do these nuts turn up? Machine tools, pumps and fans are common, as are gear and pulley mounts in transmission drives. Food processing lines, cement and steel operations, mining sites, paper mills and transport equipment all rely on them where a joint has to stay put. Each of those settings shares the same demand: the connection cannot drift.
Sizing starts with the shaft diameter and the sleeve you plan to use. Lubricate the thread before you mount the nut, then fit the correct MB washer or MS lock so vibration cannot loosen the assembly. Line up the components properly and the joint will run as intended. Because the nodular cast iron needs less torque, there is less risk of harming the thread or the shaft.
The BGL HM…T nuts swap with other brands built to the same dimensional standards. Before ordering a replacement, confirm the thread diameter, the pitch and which type of lock you need. MR Industrial Accessories is an official distributor of BGL in the USA.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the T in HM…T tell me about the nut?
- It shows the nut is made of nodular cast iron. That material lets you tighten with less effort and lowers the risk of the nut jamming when it is removed, which helps in equipment that is serviced often.
- Which lock washers work with these nuts?
- Use an MB washer or an MS safety lock. What you pick depends on the sleeve type and the room you have. Match the washer to the nut diameter so the fastening holds and nothing loosens over time.
- How do I work out the right HM…T size?
- Base it on the shaft diameter and the sleeve in use. HM42T, HM44T and HM46T sit at different dimensions, for instance. Give us the shaft diameter or the sleeve part number and we will quote the nut that corresponds.
