SKF KM 14 Precision Lock Nut (M70x2) for Shaft Diameters up to 70mm | Industrial Bearing Accessories
The KM 14 Precision Lock Nut is a critical component engineered to secure large industrial bearings (especially those with tapered bores) and adapter sleeves onto a shaft. Manufactured from high-grade steel, this robust fastener ensures precise axial positioning, preventing unwanted movement or loosening caused by high rotational speeds, sudden load changes, or heavy industrial vibration. Proper use of the KM 14, combined with the corresponding MB 14 lock washer, guarantees highly reliable seating of the bearing, which is essential for maintaining alignment, optimizing load distribution, and extending the service life of rotating machinery in demanding environments.
Designed for ease of installation and removal using standard hook spanners, the KM 14 simplifies maintenance procedures while providing exceptional operational security. Its precise threading (M70x2) and standardized dimensions make it fully interchangeable with comparable components, supporting applications across heavy industry, including pulp and paper mills, mining equipment, large gearboxes, and materials handling systems. Selecting the KM 14 ensures that critical bearing settings remain fixed, offering the maximum degree of safety and operational efficiency necessary for continuous, high-duty cycles.
