Rotor Clip CG-200SJ External Spiral Retaining Ring

Product Description

The ROTOR CLIP CG-200SJ is an external spiral retaining ring designed to seat in a machined groove on a shaft and provide a positive stop or retention shoulder for assembled components. Built from AISI 302 stainless steel to AMS-5866 and ISO 13485:2016 standards, the ring delivers corrosion resistance suitable for demanding industrial and medical-adjacent applications. It fits a 2-inch nominal shaft diameter with a groove diameter of 1.886 inches and a ring thickness of 0.062 inches. The spiral design allows installation and removal without specialized pliers in many configurations, making it a practical choice for maintenance technicians and assembly line personnel alike.

This retaining ring is suited for use in rotating shaft assemblies, precision mechanical equipment, and industrial machinery where a compact, low-profile external retention solution is required. The 302 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or cleanliness requirements consistent with ISO 13485:2016 certified processes. It is installed by trades and technicians working in mechanical assembly, industrial maintenance, and OEM manufacturing settings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical technicians or assembly personnel familiar with shaft retention hardware. Ensure the shaft groove dimensions match the ring specifications before installation, as improper groove dimensions can cause ring failure under load. De-energize and lock out all equipment before servicing any assembly containing retaining rings. Inspect the groove and ring for burrs or damage prior to seating the ring to ensure full, even engagement.
