Tab Washers ( Lock Washers )
Our tab washers (lock washers) provide a simple, reliable mechanical lock for securing KM, KML and HM locknuts in bearing assemblies. Each washer features an inner tab for shaft keyway engagement and outer tabs that lock against the nut, preventing loosening under vibration or load. Manufactured from durable steel and suitable for a wide range of shaft sizes, these washers ensure stable axial positioning for ball bearings, roller bearings and needle roller bearings. Ideal for industrial machinery, power‑transmission systems and general engineering applications where dependable fastening is essential.
