5mm E-Clips, Heavy Duty Retaining Ring Washers, Carbon Steel Black Phosphate Finish E-Rings, DIN6799 Snap Clip Retainer (pack of 10)

• E-CLIPS- Retaining rings and snap rings are fasteners that grasp elements or installations onto a shaft when assembled in a groove. Once it’s fixed, the exposed piece functions as a shoulder which holds the particular element.
• USABILITY- Circlips, Retaining Rings and Snap Rings are now integral components of modern engineering design. Commonly used in applications that need a part to turn.
• MATERIAL- Snap rings or E-Clips are made from very high tensile material carbon steel, they are strong enough to withstand extreme pressure and heat. That is why snap rings used in the assembly of floating pistons hardly fail despite the intense movement of the conrod and the high levels of heat in the chamber.
• INSTALATION- Slide the E Clip collar onto the bottom of the hinge pin and slide it upward past the grove in the lower portion of the pin. Hold the collar in place until the “E” clips are installed. Align the clips into the grove on the hinge pin and tap the end of the tool with your hand. Release the E Clip Collar.
• COMPATIBILITY- Works with door handles, automotive components, Electric Motors, Pistons, Vehicle constructions, Sprockets, Electronics, Wheel bearings, Gearing, Clutches.

E clip Retainer Rings Retaining rings are metal fasteners that fit into a groove on a shaft to provide a shoulder that holds an assembly in place. Snap ring washer is a strong, thin, E-shaped metallic ring that works as a retaining fastener on shafts and inside circular bores to retain assembly parts. However, unlike a nut or bolt that threads onto a piece, a snap ring or E-clip snaps into a circular groove on the shaft. That is why it is called a snap ring because it has high tensile strength that makes it snap into the radial groove and stay in place. Once the ring fastener sits properly in the groove, part of its circumference sticks out to form a shoulder that secures the assemblies inside the housing or onto the shaft. This is why snap rings are also called retaining rings because they retain components in an assembly. E-clip Package Contains: 100 pcs E snap rings
