Often used with small engines, heavy equipment, and power transmission, these external retaining rings have speared ends to help you install and remove them.

Also known as constant-section rings, these rings have open ends and a profile that does not taper like other external retaining rings. Use them with linear bearings on support rail shafts.

These coiled rings can be wound into place on a shaft without tools.

Slide these rings into place with one twist—no tools required—for applications with high thrust loads.

With teeth along the inside, these retaining rings hold chamfered shafts inside the housing of your equipment.

For a smooth bore and better clearance than standard internal retaining rings, the lugs on these rings face outward.

No groove required—these rings have teeth that firmly grip the bore.

Slide these rings into place by hand with a single twist for applications with high thrust loads.

With flexible teeth that slide smoothly over threads of any pitch, these push nuts can be used alone for light-duty applications or as a jam nut.

Also known as flat-style speed nuts, these have large sides, so they're easy to push over threads by hand.

Pull ring ends together with retaining ring pliers and place into the bore of a shaft or housing.

Wind these retaining rings into a groove—no tools required for installation.
