MB/AL/MS/ALLIMS Bearing Locking Accessory Series
MB/AL/MS/ALLIMS is a application-specific series configured around lock washers and lock nuts. Its catalogue definition uses see catalogue drawing/table, with individual bore and dimensional variants retained in one model table.
Series Overview
The catalogue treats this as a distinct series, so the page below follows the same logic: choose the series by housing and locking arrangement, then match the exact unit number and dimensions in the supplied table.
If the machine layout is not fixed yet, compare this family with other mounted-bearing formats before choosing the model row. Housing geometry usually narrows the options faster than bore size alone. Browse related bearing families.
Series-Level Selection
MB/AL/MS/ALLIMS is treated as one catalogue series, with individual unit numbers retained inside the dimensional table.
Mounting Form
The primary configuration is lock washers and lock nuts, intended for mounting and locking of tapered-bore bearings or related bearing accessories.
Locking Logic
The catalogue identifies see catalogue drawing/table for this series; confirm the exact row before ordering.

Engineering Drawing
For replacement work, compare the drawing with the installed housing rather than relying on a familiar series code alone. Mounting dimensions and locking details are the better confirmation points.
Applications
Bearing mounting on cylindrical shafts
MB/AL/MS/ALLIMS is relevant when bearing mounting on cylindrical shafts requires this housing format; verify shaft geometry, mounting interface, operating conditions and environment before final selection.
Plummer-block and pedestal bearing assemblies
For plummer-block and pedestal bearing assemblies, this series provides the catalogue mounting form shown above. Confirm load, speed, shaft dimensions and service environment for the chosen model.
Maintenance and replacement of bearing locking hardware
MB/AL/MS/ALLIMS is relevant when maintenance and replacement of bearing locking hardware requires this housing format; verify shaft geometry, mounting interface, operating conditions and environment before final selection.
Catalogue Dimensional Data
All catalogue rows for this family remain together below. Check the chosen bore or accessory code against the drawing letters, then include that exact unit designation in the RFQ.
Selection & Integration
Selection should move from fixed machine dimensions to the bearing code: first the mounting interface, then shaft size, then locking method and environment. This avoids choosing a familiar-looking unit that does not match the frame. In this family, the intended role is mounting and locking of tapered-bore bearings or related bearing accessories.
| Step | Information To Confirm |
|---|---|
| 1 | shaft/bearing designation |
| 2 | sleeve series and thread |
| 3 | lock nut/washer requirement |
| 4 | available axial space and mating dimensions |
Series nomenclature helps narrow the choice, but the final check should be made against the model row and installation data. This avoids treating a nearby bore size or housing variant as interchangeable without verification.
RFQ Support
Confirm The Exact MB/AL/MS/ALLIMS Configuration
A useful RFQ includes the target model or shaft size, mounting dimensions, quantity and any environment requirement. That gives the quotation review enough information to confirm the catalogue row. Ever Power Netherlands Branch can review the quotation basis against the same reference.
