It seats in a machined groove with a 4.79-inch groove diameter and holds axial position of components without requiring a secondary fastener. The ring is manufactured from AISI 302 stainless steel with an oil finish, meeting AMS-5866 and ISO 13485:2016 standards. At 0.111 inches thick and 0.12 inches wide to match the groove, it provides reliable retention in demanding environments where corrosion resistance is required. Mechanical assemblers and maintenance technicians install this ring in shaft-and-bore assemblies across industrial, HVAC, and equipment manufacturing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is suited for assemblies where an external groove on a 5-inch shaft retains a bearing, gear, pulley, or similar component. The spiral design allows installation with standard snap ring pliers without requiring a radial gap, which simplifies service in tight clearance situations. Its 302 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for wet, corrosive, or sanitary environments where carbon steel retaining rings would be unsuitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal spiral design fits 5-inch shafts without a gap, enabling installation with standard pliers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e302 stainless steel construction with oil finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets AISI 302, AMS-5866, and ISO 13485:2016 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGroove diameter of 4.79 inches with tolerance of -0.006 to +0.006 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRing thickness of 0.111 inches with tight tolerance of -0.003 to +0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree outside diameter of 5.296 inches; free diameter of 4.756 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for external installation on shafts with a 5-inch nominal diameter and a machined retaining ring groove matching the specified 4.79-inch groove diameter, 0.12-inch groove width, and 0.105-inch groove depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal should be performed with snap ring pliers rated for the ring diameter; improper tools can deform the spiral ring and compromise retention. Verify groove dimensions match the specified tolerances before installation, as an undersized or oversized groove will affect holding capacity. Power down and de-energize any rotating equipment before servicing shaft components. Follow applicable machinery safety standards and the equipment manufacturer's service procedures during disassembly and reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.79 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.006 to +0.006 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.756 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.035 to 0.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.296 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000 to +0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.105 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.111 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.003 to +0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 302 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: AISI 302, AMS-5866, ISO 13485:2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ROTOR CLIP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CG-500SJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ROTOR CLIP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699871056178,"sku":"CG-500SJ","price":10468.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/29a69c0aa71c152307354dd1c5168e00_d43d9ad0-205c-40fc-b252-ebdbcd8ae3de.jpg?v=1788382307","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rotor-clip-cg-500sj-external-spiral-retaining-ring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
