Rotor Clip CG-275ST Oil Spiral Retaining Ring 2.75 in

Product Description

The ROTOR CLIP CG-275ST OIL is an external spiral retaining ring designed to seat in a machined groove on a 2.750-inch diameter shaft, providing positive axial retention of components without the need for fasteners or secondary locking hardware. Manufactured from SAE 1060-1090 carbon steel (UNS G10600-G10900), the ring is oil coated to provide baseline corrosion resistance during storage and installation. With a ring thickness of 0.093 inches and a groove width of 0.103 inches, this ring is engineered for precise fitment and reliable load-bearing in rotating or stationary shaft assemblies across mechanical, industrial, and OEM applications.

This retaining ring is suited for use in large-shaft assemblies found in industrial machinery, gearboxes, pumps, motors, and heavy mechanical equipment where external groove retention is required on shafts near 2.750 inches in diameter. It is typically installed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers working in production, MRO, or field service environments. The spiral ring design allows installation without specialized snap ring pliers, using tangential installation methods common to this ring style.

Compatibility

Designed for external groove retention on 2.750-inch diameter shafts with a groove diameter of 2.602 inches and groove width of 0.103 inches, conforming to SAE 1060-1090 and UNS G10600-G10900 fastener standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanical technicians or assemblers. Ensure the shaft groove is clean, within tolerance, and free of burrs before seating the ring. De-energize and lock out all equipment before servicing any assembly containing this ring. Spiral retaining rings are installed tangentially into the groove and do not require snap ring pliers, but gloves and eye protection are recommended to prevent injury from spring-back during handling.
