Made from spring steel with a phosphate finish, this ring provides reliable axial retention in mechanical assemblies across industrial, HVAC, and general equipment applications. The shaft diameter is 1-5\/16 inches, with a groove diameter of 1.232 inches and a ring thickness of 0.05 inches. The phosphate coating offers moderate corrosion resistance and improves lubrication retention during installation and service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis retaining ring is suited for use in rotating shaft assemblies, gear drives, motor shafts, bearing retention, and similar mechanical systems found in commercial and industrial equipment. It is typically installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers working on equipment requiring positive shaft retention without threaded fasteners. The package quantity is 10 rings per unit, making it practical for production or service environments where multiple installations are performed at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExternal snap ring design seats in shaft groove for secure axial component retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring steel construction provides consistent snap force and long-term fatigue resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePhosphate finish offers moderate corrosion protection and aids lubrication retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGroove width of 0.056 inches with a tolerance of 0.000 to 0.004 inches for precise fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRing thickness tolerance of -0.002 to 0.002 inches for consistent seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 10 rings per quantity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service ring for external snap ring grooves on shafts with a 1-5\/16 inch nominal diameter in standard inch-measurement mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal snap retaining rings require snap ring pliers with the correct tip size to spread the ring during installation and removal — do not attempt installation with makeshift tools, as improper spreading can permanently deform the ring. Ensure the shaft groove is free of burrs, debris, and corrosion before seating the ring. Always relieve any spring or mechanical load on the shaft assembly before removing or installing retaining rings to prevent ejection injury. Verify groove dimensions match the ring specifications before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1-5\/16 inches (Nominal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.232 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.214 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.056 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000 to 0.004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 79529574\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698809667890,"sku":"79529574","price":16.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/992279b5f6cb319daf3f9a355a35046a.jpg?v=1788368267","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-79529574-external-snap-retaining-ring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
