Retaining Rings
Retaining Rings
Retaining rings, also known as snap rings or circlips, are mechanical fasteners used to secure components onto a shaft or inside a bore. They are typically made of metal and have a circular shape with a small gap or opening.
Retaining rings are designed to fit into a groove or recess on the shaft or inside the bore of a housing. They provide a secure and reliable method of retaining components in place, preventing them from sliding or moving axially.
