Rotor Clip DHO-10SG External Snap Retaining Ring 10mm

Product Description

The ROTOR CLIP DHO-10SG is an external snap retaining ring designed to secure components on a 10 mm shaft. Machined from 420 stainless steel with a phosphate finish, it provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments. The ring seats in a groove with a 10.39 mm groove diameter and a 1.09 mm groove width, holding components in axial position without threading or welding. With a ring thickness of 0.99 mm and a free diameter of 10.80 mm, it installs with standard snap ring pliers. This part is used by maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and industrial service professionals working on precision shaft assemblies.

The DHO-10SG is suited for metric shaft assemblies in industrial, mechanical, and equipment maintenance applications. Its DIN 472 fastener standard and ISO 13485:2015 compliance make it appropriate for use in controlled manufacturing environments including medical device assembly and precision industrial equipment. The phosphate finish aids in corrosion resistance and lubrication retention, making it a practical choice in both dry and lightly lubricated service conditions.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 472-compliant external snap retaining ring for 10 mm metric shafts where groove geometry matches the specified 10.39 mm groove diameter and 1.09 mm groove width.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal should be performed using snap ring pliers sized for external rings to avoid deforming the ring or damaging the groove. De-energize and lock out all power sources before servicing any assembly containing this ring. Verify groove diameter, groove width, and groove depth match the DHO-10SG specifications before installation. Reuse of snap rings after removal is not recommended, as the ring may lose retention force once expanded.
