Product description

A circlip is a spring steel ring used to hold parts in place on a shaft or in a bore. The snap ring fits into a groove and prevents parts from moving axially.

There are two main types internal sealing rings, which are placed in a groove in a bore to keep parts inside the bore.and outer sealing rings, which are placed in a groove on a shaft to secure parts to the shaft.

They are often assembled and disassembled using special circlip pliers, which stretch or compress the ring.

The circlip mentioned here is an external circlip that is pressed into the shaft groove without the need for special tools.

Below you'll find a list of where the axle lock washers mentioned here have been used, and the number of washers you'd need if you wanted to replace them all for this purpose.
