For securing bearings and other shaft-mounted components, the NTN AWL series lock washer works alongside slotted nuts. An inner lug engages the shaft groove while an outer tab bends into a nut notch, resisting vibration-induced loosening. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this series in multiple sizes to industrial users across the United States and Latin America.
The AWL prefix is followed by a numeric size code, such as AWL24, AWL30 or AWL38. That number corresponds to the nominal diameter of the shaft or thread the washer fits, depending on the code, and not necessarily the shaft diameter itself. Match the suffix to the lock nut you are using. NTN produces these washers in steel with a surface treatment for corrosion resistance.
These washers appear in gearboxes, pumps, fans, conveyors and machine tools, as well as in power transmission equipment, wherever bearings must stay firmly fixed to a shaft and vibration could otherwise loosen lock nuts. They are common in metallurgy, food processing, mining and petrochemical plants.
When selecting a washer, confirm the shaft diameter and lock nut type. The inner tab must seat in the shaft groove, and the outer lug must bend into one of the nut notches. Correct sizing prevents play. During assembly, check that the tab is fully seated and that the lug bends without damaging the thread.
NTN AWL series lock washers can be interchanged with other brands that share the same dimensional standard. If you have a competitor's code or an unidentified part, we can identify a compatible equivalent. Interchangeability depends on tab and lug dimensions, so verifying the applicable standard is important. We quote the exact code or size you need.
