ROTOR CLIP: THE GREEN RING Simple concept. Using a retaining ring to fasten your assembly instead of a traditional fastener not only REDUCES YOUR COSTS, but also SAVES THE ENVIRONMENT. Fewer parts, less material mean cost savings for you and less waste for the planet. Consider the following: Machined Shoulder: Machining this shoulder and screw threads onto a 1/4" cold-rolled steel shaft to accept a washer and nut retainer generated 0.021 lbs. of waste (left).Machining two grooves to accept SH-50 (1/2 inch) retaining rings produced just 0.003lbs. of waste and use correspondingly less cutting...

There are three main types of retaining rings available to the designer: tapered, constant section and spiral....

Using wave springs can reduce traditional coil spring heights as much as 50% saving weight and costs as well as reducing overall assembly sizes. Coil Spring Wave Spring WAVE SPRING TYPES WAVE SPRING TERMS Static: A spring that holds a load at a given height for the life of the assembly; there is no cycling of the part. Dynamic: A spring that is constantly moving up and down until the end of its life. It has two working heights and hence, two loads. Generally, the higher the cycle life the stronger the spring needs to be. Gap Single Turn/Overlap Single Turn Standard Inch (SST) /Narrow Inch...
