Bearing washers

Lock washers – reliable anti-loosening protection

A lock washer, often referred to as a tab washer, is a key securing component in machinery mechanics. Its primary function is to effectively lock bearing locknuts (e.g., KM types) against self-loosening or backing off, which could occur due to intense shocks and vibrations during system operation. In the e-marat.pl product range, you will find a wide selection of lock washers that guarantee the stability and safety of the entire bearing arrangement.

Depending on the locknut size and the specifics of the application, different types of locking devices are utilized:

• Tab washers – designed for small and medium-sized locknuts, manufactured from high-quality deep-drawn sheet steel.
• Locking clips – used for heavier loads, engaging a groove in the shaft and secured to the locknut by means of a hexagon bolt.

The role of lock washers in protecting bearing surfaces

In addition to its locking function, a bearing lock washer is responsible for the even distribution of axial loads and protects the face surfaces against excessive wear and mechanical damage. Thanks to precise manufacturing from resistant materials, our mounting washers withstand high pressure and harsh operating conditions, minimizing the risk of machinery failure.

Advantages of lock washers available at e-marat.pl:

• Simple and quick mounting thanks to precisely profiled locking tabs.
• High resistance to vibrations, which reduces noise and improves the machine's running smoothness.
• Availability of multiple diameters, allowing for a perfect match to current maintenance needs.
