Retaining Ring Introduction

The main function of the retaining ring, also known as ‘Circlip’, is to fasten on the axis or the inner groove of the machine in order to prevent axis from moving and slipping off.

Generally speaking, according to standards of AISI from America, JIS from Japan and DIN from Germany, there are two types of retaining rings, which are the ‘Internal Type’ and the ‘External Type’. Due to different applications, multiple shapes of retaining rings can be selected, such as S Shape, R Shape, E Shape and C Shape. Moreover, the coat of the retaining ring can also be chosen according to diverse environmental conditions.
