The NSK ANL series lock nut is used to fasten bearings and other components onto a shaft in an axial position. It allows adjustable mounting and simplifies maintenance and disassembly where axial position and preload need to be controlled.

The ANL code followed by a number indicates the nut size. For instance, ANL 24, ANL 26 and ANL 28 correspond to different thread diameters according to the code. The number is not the direct size but a reference linked to the bearing and shaft dimensions. To choose the right nut, you need the shaft diameter and the bearing type being secured.

These lock nuts appear in many industries, including metallurgy, food processing, mining and petrochemical. They are found on conveyor belts, pumps, fans, mills and power transmission equipment. Their job is to hold the bearing in its axial position, preventing movement that could lead to premature failures and equipment damage.

When mounting, check the thread and the nut seat on the shaft. Clean the surfaces and apply the proper torque according to the manufacturer's specifications. In applications with vibration or dynamic loads, a locking device such as a lock washer may be needed. Lubricating the thread eases mounting and helps prevent seizing.

NSK ANL series lock nuts can be interchangeable with those from other brands that follow the same dimensional standard. If you have a part number from another brand, we can identify the corresponding equivalent. Always verify dimensions and thread pitch to ensure compatibility.
