Rotor Clip Your Single Source All Rings Have A Function... A discussion of retaining rings must inevitably begin with a debunking of myths; namely, that one style retaining ring will function better than all other types in all instances. No one retaining ring style is “better” than another. Rather, the parameters of an application actually determine which retaining ring is best to use, and this can vary from assembly to assembly. Selecting the correct type of retaining ring based on variables such as installation/removal requirements, anticipated thrust load, and end play take-up can ensure...

Ring Attributes The Right Ring For Your Application TAPERED SECTION RETAINING RINGS - Axially Assembled: • Axially installed into machined grooves in housings/bores (internal) or on shafts (external) • Have lug holes for ease of installation/removal • Make uniform contact when released in a groove • Can accommodate higher thrust loadings • Provide more of a shoulder with which to retain a component or assembly than constant section or spiral retaining rings TAPERED SECTION RETAINING RINGS - Radially Assembled: • Radially installed into machined grooves on shafts (external) • Accommodate...

Standard material for Rotor Clip retaining rings is carbon spring steel (SAE 1060-1090/UNS G10600-G10900). Rings can also be produced in our standard stainless steel (PH 15-7 Mo/UNS S15700) with DIN 1.4122 as an option, and in our standard beryllium copper (Alloy #25/UNS C17200) with phosphor bronze (Alloy#5218/UNS C52180) as an option. Please note that the availability of rings in the stainless steel and copper materials is subject to prior inquiry and acceptance of a formal quotation. Rotor Clip can also produce rings one gauge thicker or thinner than standard sizes. Again, such orders...

Tapered/Constant Section Rings Finishes PHOSPHATE COATING (PA) - This standard finish is recommended over unfinished plain steel since it offers an extended shelf-life protection against rusting. RoHS compliant. THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE FOR THIS FINISH. PHOSPHATE AND OIL (PD) - This finish provides 8-hour salt spray protection. RoHS compliant. PHOSPHATE WITH SEALER (PAL) - A coating is added to the finish to control loose phosphate crystals on the surface of the part. RoHS compliant. HEAVY PHOSPHATE AND OIL (HPD) - This finish provides 72 salt spray hours and can be used in place of...

Materials: CARBON SPRING STEEL (ST) This steel is known for its high strength and reliability in spiral ring applications. Since carbon steel is subject to corrosion, Rotor Clip rings are oil dipped to ensure some corrosion resistance. STAINLESS STEEL - AISI 302 (SJ) This general purpose stainless steel offers corrosion resistance and can be cold worked to high tensile strengths. STAINLESS STEEL - AISI 316 (SU) This type of stainless steel is heat resistant with superior corrosion resistance than other chromium nickel steels. It offers high creep strength at elevated temperatures...

Wave Springs For the most up-to-date specifications, online ordering, quotations & sample orders, visit www.rotordip.com Wave Spring Advantage TruWave flat wire wave springs help to save up to 50% of axial space in your application when compared to conventional coil springs. The result is more compact applications in which unnecessary space and therefore excess material of neighboring components can be reduced to a minimum. The flat wire effectively reduces the solid height of the wave spring so that with the same amount of turns one can visibly reduce the work height without compromising...
