Need to fasten your manufacturing components to their housings and shafts securely while saving on space? Use this external circlip from RS PRO. The ring retains items effectively while taking up less room than rivets, cotter pins and threaded sleeves.


This external circlip is made from durable steel that's been treated with a black phosphate coating. This makes for a strong and long-lasting product that's resistant to rust and corrosion, so you can use it in harsh environments.


The retaining ring is also easy to install. The machine shaft slots straight into the clip holes. You can then snap it into place quickly with a pair of circlips pliers. Steel snap rings like this are typically found in the printing, manufacturing and automotive industries.
