    Image of Product. Front orientation. Retaining Rings. Tapered and Side-Mount External Retaining Rings Assortment.
    Grab an assortment of tapered and side-mount external retaining rings. Open the tapered rings with retaining ring pliers, pass over the end of a shaft, then release them to spring into a groove. When you don't have access to the end of the shaft, install the E-Style rings from the side and lock them into the groove.
    Phosphate-Coated Carbon Steel—The most popular choice, these are strong and wear resistant. Their finish adds some corrosion resistance, but only to minimal dampness.

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Retaining Rings. Spiral External and Internal Retaining Rings Assortment.

    Carbon Steel—The go-to choice. These rings have high strength and wear resistance, but they don't resist rust.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments. These rings resist rust, but they aren't as strong as carbon steel.
