TIMKEN KM series lock nuts hold bearings and other components in place on threaded shafts, keeping their axial position steady during operation. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to industrial plants across the United States and several Latin American countries.
The KM code starts with the letters KM followed by a number that indicates size. KM0, KM1, KM2, KM3, KM4, KM5, KM6 and KM7 cover different thread sizes and diameters, and the number rises with the nut size. This makes it easy to match the nut to the shaft or bearing being secured.
These lock nuts appear in metallurgical, food, mining and petrochemical plants, and in power transmission equipment, pumps, fans, conveyor belts and agricultural machinery. They are used wherever spherical roller bearings, ball bearings or other types must be locked in place to keep the assembly stable.
Selection starts with the shaft diameter and thread pitch, plus the bearing type to be secured. Mounting calls for the right tools, such as hook wrenches, and the torque recommended by the manufacturer. Check alignment and fit the matching locking device, such as a lock washer, so vibration does not loosen the nut.
TIMKEN KM series lock nuts interchange with other brands that follow the same thread and dimension standard. When you request a quote, send the complete part number and, if possible, the shaft or bearing dimensions. The MR team can point you to equivalent references and confirm compatibility with your application.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I identify the KM nut I need?
- Know the shaft diameter and thread pitch where the nut will be mounted. The KM code plus a number indicates size, and a higher number means a larger dimension. If you are unsure, send the dimensions on WhatsApp and we will help you select it.
- Are KM nuts compatible with other brands?
- Lock nuts that follow the same thread and dimension standard are interchangeable between brands. TIMKEN manufactures under standards that allow their use with bearings from other origins. Ask us about the equivalence of your part number.
- What tools are needed for mounting?
- Use hook wrenches or tools specific to lock nuts and apply the appropriate torque. Also fit lock washers to prevent the nut from loosening due to vibration. We can advise you on correct mounting.
