The TIMKEN AN series lock nut is an axial fastening element that holds bearings and other components in place on a shaft. It works together with a lock washer, which keeps the nut from backing off when vibration is present. This makes it a practical choice for assemblies that call for precise, secure adjustment.

The part number follows a simple pattern: the letters AN come first, then a number that indicates the nominal shaft or thread diameter. AN 26, AN 28 and AN 30 are examples of different sizes in the series. Each nut is matched with a lock washer that locks it in position, so identifying the exact part number is the first step in getting the correct component.

These lock nuts appear in many industrial settings, from machine tools and power transmission equipment to rollers and conveyor systems. They are common in maintenance work at steel plants, cement plants, paper mills and food processing facilities, where mounting has to stay reliable over time.

When selecting a nut, check the shaft thread diameter and pitch, along with the type of bearing being secured. The matching lock washer must be used, and the recommended torque should be applied. Lubricating the thread and aligning the components correctly help prevent damage and keep the mounting secure.

TIMKEN AN series lock nuts can be interchanged with nuts from other brands that follow the same thread and dimensional standard. Before replacing a part, confirm the dimensions and pitch. If you need help, our team can point you to a compatible alternative.
