Manufactured from spring steel with a phosphate finish, this ring seats into a precision groove on the shaft outside diameter, holding bearings, gears, collars, and similar components axially in place. The shaft diameter is 1-9\/16 inches, the groove diameter measures 1.468 inches, and the ring thickness is 0.062 inches. The phosphate finish provides a base layer of corrosion resistance and surface lubricity suited to industrial and mechanical service environments. Installation and removal are performed with standard external snap ring pliers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis retaining ring is appropriate for use in industrial machinery, power transmission assemblies, pumps, motors, gearboxes, and general mechanical equipment where external shaft retention is required. It is sized for a 1-9\/16 inch nominal shaft and follows inch-system dimensioning, making it a direct fit for equipment designed to that standard. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals regularly specify this ring type for OEM and MRO applications alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal snap ring design retains components on the outside diameter of a 1-9\/16 inch shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring steel construction provides consistent radial spring force and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhosphate finish offers baseline corrosion resistance and improved lubricity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGroove diameter of 1.468 inches with a groove width of 0.068 inches for precise seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree diameter of 1.446 inches allows controlled installation into machined shaft grooves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInch-system dimensioning compatible with standard external snap ring plier sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard external snap retaining ring for 1-9\/16 inch nominal shafts machined to inch-system groove specifications.

Ensure the shaft groove is clean and free of burrs before seating the ring. Wear eye protection during installation and removal, as snap rings can release under spring tension. Confirm the ring is fully seated in the groove on all sides before returning the assembly to service.\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: 1-9\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.468 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.446 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.068 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: 0.062 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Thickness Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.003 to 0.003 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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\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: 79529616\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715535044914,"sku":"79529616","price":22.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e377bd3e4a69119011fc75bea7202d35.jpg?v=1788515298","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-79529616-external-snap-retaining-ring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
