The SKF TMFT mounting kit is a hand tool set for installing bearings by cold impact, designed to protect both the bearing and the shaft. It consists of impact rings and a sleeve that spread the mounting force evenly across the bearing ring. Maintenance workshops use it to mount bearings quickly and safely without improvised tools that could shorten bearing life.

The TMFT designation identifies a mounting set. The number that follows indicates the shaft or bore diameter range the kit covers: for example, TMFT 24 handles a small range, while TMFT 36 covers larger diameters. When a suffix includes a slash, such as TMFT 36-30/35 or TMFT 36-40/45, the kit contains impact rings for two specific sizes within that range, so you can adapt to different bearings without purchasing multiple kits.

These kits are common in food, cement, mining, paper and transport operations, where bearings are frequently mounted on shafts and in housings. Maintenance workshops and production plants rely on them for dependable mounting without a hydraulic press. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to support field mounting tasks.

To choose the correct kit, consider the bearing bore diameter and whether mounting is on a shaft or in a housing. The sleeve contacts the inner or outer ring as appropriate, and the impact rings are selected by size. The mating surface must be clean and free of burrs, and force should be applied perpendicularly to prevent damage. Lubricating the seat beforehand helps the bearing slide on more smoothly.

Other brands offer similar tools, but their codes and dimensions can differ. Always confirm that the size range matches the bearing you need to mount. When replacing an existing kit, the safest method is to consult the supplier with the bearing code or exact dimensions. Tools are not always interchangeable between brands, so technical verification matters.

For safe, efficient bearing mounting, the SKF TMFT kit is a proven choice. At MR Industrial Accessories you can request a quote for the model that fits your application. Send the bearing code or dimensions via WhatsApp or email, and our team will help you select the right kit.
