Rotor Clip TI-43ST Pa Internal Retaining Ring 7/16 in

Product Description

The ROTOR CLIP TI-43ST PA is an internal self-locking retaining ring designed to secure components within a bored housing without requiring a groove machined into the bore wall. Manufactured from 1060/1090 grade steel with a phosphate finish, this ring seats directly against the bore surface and relies on its own spring tension to maintain axial position. It is rated for a thrust load capacity of 71 pounds and carries a ring thickness of 0.01 inches. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this type of ring in light-duty retention applications where a traditional grooved retaining ring is not practical or feasible.

This retaining ring is suited for use in precision assemblies across industrial, mechanical, and light manufacturing applications. It fits a 7/16 inch bore diameter and is appropriate where space constraints or bore conditions require a self-locking design rather than a snap-ring groove configuration. The phosphate finish provides baseline corrosion resistance for indoor and controlled-environment use. This ring is supplied as a single unit but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Self-locking internal design requires no machined groove in the bore
• 1060/1090 steel construction with Rockwell 15N hardness of 84-86
• Phosphate finish for baseline corrosion resistance
• Thrust load capacity rated at 71 pounds
• Ring thickness of 0.01 inches with a tolerance of -0.001 to 0.001 inches
• Meets SAE 1060-1090, UNS G10600-G10900, and ISO 13485:2016 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a self-locking internal retaining ring for 7/16 inch bore diameter applications in mechanical assemblies where groove-style snap rings are not suitable. Does not meet military specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using retaining ring pliers appropriate for internal self-locking ring profiles. Ensure the bore surface is clean and free of burrs before seating the ring. Verify that the ring is fully and evenly seated before applying any axial load. Disassemble using appropriate removal tools to avoid deforming the ring or damaging the bore.
