Single Turn Internal Spiral Retaining Ring

Light Duty Single Turn Internal Spiral Retaining Rings for Hole Stainless Circlips

Description:

Spiral retaining rings have no ears in your assembly! Spiral retaining rings are manufactured by coiling the ring from flat wire. This unique process produces a retaining ring that has no protruding ears or burrs to interfere with your assembly. Because coiling produces a retaining ring with no scrap, the spiral retaining ring can be economically produced in carbon steel, stainless steel, coppers, and many other alloys.

No gap – 360° retaining surface.

No protruding ears interfere with mating components (uniform cross-section).

Economically produced in stainless steel because the coiling process produces no scrap.

No – Charge on custom designs.

Easy installation and removal.

Spiral retaining ring, also known as spiral elastic retaining ring, is rolled from flat metal wire, and has good elasticity and toughness after heat treatment and surface treatment. For shafts and holes, single-turn, double-turn and multi-turn according to different loads, for axial positioning.

Features

Spiral retaining ring has the following characteristics:

1. No notch – the profile is a continuous circumference with full contact with the fitting;
2. The inner circle is smooth and complete, and does not interfere with the mating parts;
3. No burrs on the inner and outer diameters, easy disassembly and assembly;
4. No corner waste is generated in the production process, saving materials;
5. There is no need for molds, and the production cycle is short. By changing the thickness of the material and the number of turns, it can be easily made into light load, medium load and heavy load.

Scope of Application

Spiral retaining rings are widely used in hydraulic parts assembly, valves, instruments, various lock core components, needle roller bearings, pulleys, connectors, quick connectors and other mechanical assemblies.

Spiral retaining rings are a type of retaining ring that uses a spiral groove to hold the ring in place. They are ideal for applications where space is limited, and they can be used with or without a retaining wall. A spiral retaining ring is a type of ring that has a spiral-shaped groove on the inside diameter. This groove allows the ring to be installed on a shaft by being compressed onto the shaft. Once the ring is in place, the groove expands and locks the ring in place.

How do spiral retaining rings work?

Spiral retaining rings work by using a spiral shape to hold a shaft in place. This spiral shape creates a friction fit that holds the shaft in place. This is a very effective way to hold a shaft in place, and it is very reliable.

When are spiral retaining rings used?

Spiral retaining rings are often used in applications that require a large amount of radial force. They are also used when there is a need to maintain alignment of the shaft and bore.

What are the benefits of using spiral retaining rings?

1. They are very strong and can hold up to a lot of weight.
2. They are very durable and can last for a long time.
3. They are easy to use and can be installed quickly.
4. They are affordable and can be cost-effective compared to other types of retaining rings.
5. They are compact and can take up less space than other types of retaining rings.
6. They are corrosion-resistant and can withstand harsh weather conditions.
7. They are safe to use and can be a good option for people who are looking for a safe and reliable retaining ring option.

How to choose the right spiral elastic retaining ring for your application?

There are a few factors that you need to consider when choosing the right spiral elastic retaining ring for your application. The size and shape of the part you are trying to retain, the force required to retain the part, and the environment the part will be in are all important factors to consider.
The size and shape of the part you are trying to retain is important because you need to make sure the ring will fit around the part. The force required to retain the part is important because you need to make sure the ring can withstand the force that is being applied to it. The environment the part will be in is important because you need to make sure the ring can withstand the conditions it will be exposed to.

How are spiral elastic retaining rings different from traditional retaining rings?

Spiral elastic retaining rings are different from traditional retaining rings in a few ways. First, spiral elastic retaining rings are made of elastic material, which allows them to stretch and contract as needed. This makes them ideal for use in applications where the surrounding material may flex or change size. Second, spiral elastic retaining rings have a spiral-shaped groove on the inside surface, which helps them grip the surrounding material more securely. This makes them less likely to slip out of place, even under heavy loads. Lastly, spiral elastic retaining rings are more flexible than traditional retaining rings, making them easier to install and remove.

Factors to consider when choosing a spiral retaining ring

When choosing a spiral retaining ring, there are several factors to consider, including:

1. Diameter: The diameter of the ring must match the diameter of the shaft or component on which it will be installed.
2. Width: The width of the ring must match the width of the groove in which it will be installed.
3. Material: Spiral retaining rings are typically made of spring steel, stainless steel, or other durable materials. You should choose a material that is compatible with the application, and that can withstand the environmental conditions in which the ring will be used.
4. Load capacity: The ring must be able to withstand the forces that will be exerted on it during normal operation.
5. Corrosion resistance: If the ring will be used in an environment where corrosion is a concern, it should be made of a material that is resistant to rust and other forms of corrosion.
6. Temperature range: The ring should be able to operate within the temperature range of the application.
7. Ease of installation: It is important to consider the ease of installation of the ring, and how it will be installed. Some rings are designed to be installed with a tool, while others can be installed by hand.
8. Brand reputation: It is always a good idea to consider the reputation of the manufacturer when choosing a spiral retaining ring, so you can be sure you are getting a quality product that meets your needs.
9. Compliance: It is important to check if the ring is compliant with any relevant industry standards or regulations, such as those set by ASTM, ASME, or ANSI.

By considering these factors, you can be sure to select a spiral retaining ring that is well-suited to your application and will provide reliable performance over time.
