Ridgid 48146 Retaining Ring 250 Hoist Ring

Product Description

The RIDGID 48146 is a 250 retaining ring designed for use in hoist ring assemblies. Retaining rings of this type secure components onto shafts or into bores, preventing axial movement during operation. This part measures approximately 4.02 inches by 2.99 inches by 0.51 inches and weighs 0.01 pounds, making it a lightweight but functionally critical hardware component. It is manufactured in Romania and is intended for installation by qualified technicians working on hoisting or lifting equipment where precise component retention is required.

This retaining ring is suited for hoist ring applications in both industrial and trade service environments. It serves as a replacement or service part within assemblies where retaining rings maintain the position of pins, shafts, or fasteners under load. Technicians performing maintenance or repair on hoist ring systems will find this part appropriate for restoring proper component retention in the assembly.
