It fits a 13\/32 inch (0.4063 inch decimal) shaft diameter with a groove diameter of 0.382 inches. Made from SAE 1060-1090 spring steel with a phosphate finish, this ring delivers reliable holding force in mechanical assemblies. Hardness is rated at 69.5-73 HRC, providing resistance to deformation under load. Licensed tradespeople and mechanical maintenance technicians install these rings during equipment assembly, repair, and overhaul work where positive axial retention is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis external retaining ring is suited for industrial and mechanical applications where shaft-mounted components such as bearings, gears, collars, or pulleys must be held in axial position. The phosphate finish provides a base-level corrosion inhibitor and aids in lubrication retention. It is appropriate for use in HVAC equipment drive assemblies, pump shafts, motor shafts, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a compact, low-profile retention solution. The 0.029 inch groove width and 0.025 inch ring thickness conform to standard SAE groove dimensions, making this ring a straightforward drop-in fit for properly machined shafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal snap ring design provides axial retention on 13\/32 inch shafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSAE 1060-1090 spring steel construction with 69.5-73 HRC hardness rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhosphate finish inhibits corrosion and supports lubrication retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGroove diameter of 0.382 inches with tolerance of -0.002 to 0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRing thickness of 0.025 inches meets SAE and UNS G10600-G10900 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with ISO 13485:2015 quality management standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style external snap retaining ring for standard 13\/32 inch shaft diameters machined to SAE groove specifications.

Power down and de-energize any equipment before servicing shaft assemblies. Ensure the groove is clean and free of burrs before seating the ring. Always wear eye protection, as snap rings under tension can release with significant force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External Snap Retaining Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/32 inches (0.4063 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.382 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.002 to 0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.366 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.63 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.029 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: 0.012 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 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: SAE 1060-1090 Spring Steel (UNS G10600-G10900)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 69.5-73 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Phosphate\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.00043 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\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: SH-40ST PA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ROTOR CLIP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51706171195698,"sku":"SH-40ST PA","price":1857.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2528e424cc63810c213844cb5da7ec24.jpg?v=1788433070","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rotor-clip-sh-40st-pa-external-snap-retaining-ring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
