Manufactured from spring steel with a phosphate finish, this ring seats in a precision-cut external groove to prevent axial movement of gears, bearings, pulleys, and similar parts. With a shaft diameter of 3\/16 inches and a groove diameter of 0.175 inches, it is dimensionally precise for reliable retention. The phosphate finish provides a base layer of corrosion resistance and improves lubrication retention. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly workers install these rings using standard snap ring pliers in production and repair applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis external snap retaining ring is suited for light-duty shaft assemblies in industrial machinery, power transmission equipment, and general mechanical assemblies. The 3\/16-inch nominal size makes it appropriate for small-diameter shaft applications where compact, low-profile retention hardware is required. It is sold in a package quantity of 50 units, making it practical for production line use or maintenance stock replenishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal snap ring design seats in a machined groove on the outside of a shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring steel construction provides consistent radial tension and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhosphate finish improves corrosion resistance and lubricant adhesion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShaft diameter: 3\/16 inches with groove diameter of 0.175 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRing thickness of 0.015 inches with a tolerance of -0.002 to +0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGroove width of 0.018 inches with a tolerance of 0.000 to 0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for mechanical assemblies requiring external snap ring retention on 3\/16-inch diameter shafts machined to the corresponding groove specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal require external snap ring pliers sized for the 3\/16-inch application. Ensure the shaft groove is clean and free of burrs before seating the ring. Always wear eye protection during installation, as snap rings can release under tension. Confirm the ring is fully seated in the groove before resuming operation of the assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External Snap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.175 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.018 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000 to 0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.015 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: Spring Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Phosphate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 75942086\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717431722290,"sku":"75942086","price":33.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/61f6b89813da430b5be64db3f82584ad.jpg?v=1788540368","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-75942086-external-snap-retaining-ring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
