FAQ What is the correct tightening torque for the FAG KML28 locknut? The tightening torque is not a fixed value and depends heavily on the specific application, bearing preload requirements, and lubrication used. It is crucial to consult the machine manufacturer’s assembly manual or use FAG’s calculation tools for the correct procedure and torque value to avoid bearing damage. Does the KML28 require a separate locking device like a tab washer? No, the FAG KML series features an integrated locking mechanism. The locking is achieved by grub screws (not included with the nut) that press brass pins against the shaft thread, providing a secure, friction-based lock without damaging the shaft. What is the “B.MF” marking on the nut? The “B.MF” marking on FAG precision locknuts indicates the location of the highest point of radial run-out of the nut thread. For maximum precision, this mark should be positioned 180 degrees opposite to the highest point of radial run-out of the shaft thread during assembly. profideals is not an authorized distributor, reseller or representative of the products featured on this website.
