Metal Circlip

Circle available in SS 304.Size - 1.5 inch to 35 inch Gauge / Thickness - 0.4 mm to 3 mm

Internal circlips are retaining rings for securing mechanical elements (e.g. bearings) in bores. Circlips are installed into a groove and creating a shoulder that retains the assembly. Lugs with holes are provided for easy fitting and removal with pliers.

Constructed as curved beams of uniform strength, the radial width is reduced towards the free ends so that a constantly round shape is maintained throughout continuous use. This form of circlip often used in assemblies subjected to strong centrifugal forces, is also secure against high rotational speeds. Lugs with holes are provided for rapid fitting or removal with circlip pliers.
