The SKF TMFT mounting kit provides a controlled way to cold-mount bearings without a press or heater. Its impact rings and sleeve direct the force to the correct bearing ring, keeping raceways and rolling elements safe. This makes it a practical tool for maintenance shops that handle bearing changes regularly. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SKF line and helps you match the kit to the bearing you need to install.

The TMFT code itself tells you which bearing the kit fits. It combines the bearing outer diameter and the width of the ring to be mounted. For instance, TMFT 33-C40/68 covers bearings with an outer diameter from 40 to 68 mm, while TMFT 36 C45-75 serves a similar range with a different ring setup. The numbers after the letter C define the sleeve and ring sizes included. Before ordering, confirm the outer diameter and width of your bearing.

These kits see use in food processing, cement, mining, oil and power generation, where bearings are mounted and removed often. Workshops and plants rely on them for pumps, electric motors, gearboxes, conveyors and fans. Railway and automotive operations also use them when heating equipment is not on hand.

Choosing the right kit starts with the bearing outer diameter and width, plus the fit type. The sleeve must press on the ring that stays fixed, never on the rolling elements. Tap gently and evenly with a rubber or bronze mallet, keeping the bearing square to the shaft. A lightly lubricated seat helps the bearing slide on and reduces the risk of damage. For large bearings or tight fits, consider oil heating or an induction heater.

SKF TMFT kits work with bearings from other manufacturers when the outer diameter and width match. Still, check that the sleeve and ring design suits your bearing type, whether deep groove ball, cylindrical roller or another style. Equivalent kits exist, but their designations differ. If unsure, send us the bearing code and we will identify the correct TMFT kit.
