The ring seats in a groove with a 0.343 inch diameter and holds position through three prongs that grip the shaft groove. Made from SAE 1060-1090 carbon steel with a yellow zinc dichromate finish, it provides corrosion resistance in light-duty service environments. Ring thickness measures 0.035 inches and hardness is rated at 37-43 HRC. This ring is installed by mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians wherever a low-profile external ring is needed to retain bearings, pulleys, or other shaft-mounted components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis retaining ring is suited for light machinery, motors, pumps, and other rotating assemblies where an external E style ring fits standard shaft and groove dimensions. The compact profile makes it a common choice in tight-clearance assemblies across industrial, HVAC, and equipment maintenance applications. The minimum order quantity is 100 pieces, making it appropriate for shop stock or production use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eE style external ring with three prongs for positive shaft engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 7\/16 inch shaft diameter with 0.343 inch groove diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSAE 1060-1090 carbon steel construction, 37-43 HRC hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eYellow zinc dichromate finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.035 inch ring thickness with tight tolerance control (-0.002 to +0.002 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets SAE 1060-1090 and UNS G10600-G10900 fastener standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style external E style retaining ring for 7\/16 inch shafts with a 0.343 inch groove diameter, suitable for standard groove-width assemblies across industrial and mechanical equipment applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal require external retaining ring pliers sized for the ring diameter; using incorrect tools can distort the prongs and compromise retention. Always relieve any shaft load and de-energize the equipment before servicing shaft-mounted components. Inspect the shaft groove for burrs or wear that could affect seating and the ring's rated holding performance. Dispose of any ring that has been removed and reinstalled multiple times, as repeated cycling can reduce prong integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External E Style\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches (0.4375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.343 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000 to 0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.337 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.687 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.039 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000 to 0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.047 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.002 to +0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, SAE 1060-1090 (UNS G10600-G10900)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37-43 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yellow Zinc Dichromate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Prongs\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE 1060-1090; UNS G10600-G10900; ISO 13485:2015\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: 0.001 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: E-43ST ZD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ROTOR CLIP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51713245446450,"sku":"E-43ST ZD","price":1638.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/07654425de83b9a8dbb5fb9cecf48ffe_41d72401-6862-4292-9dd3-3d6c92d2dba6.jpg?v=1788492251","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rotor-clip-e-43st-zd-external-e-style-retaining-ring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
