Value Collection 80122328 Internal Snap Retaining Ring

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 80122328 is an internal snap retaining ring designed to secure components within a bored housing or assembly. Manufactured from spring steel with a phosphate finish, this ring seats into a machined groove to prevent axial movement of shafts, pins, and other retained parts. It is sized for a 1-1/2 inch nominal bore diameter with a free outer diameter of 1.66 inches. Ring thickness is 0.05 inches. Groove width is 0.056 inches and groove depth is 0.047 inches. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install these rings across a wide range of mechanical and industrial applications.

This retaining ring is suited for use in rotating assemblies, gearboxes, pump housings, motor end bells, and general mechanical sub-assemblies where a standard internal snap ring is required. The phosphate finish provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance and helps retain lubrication at the ring surface. It is appropriate for both light industrial and trade maintenance contexts, including HVAC equipment assemblies, pump rebuilds, and similar service work requiring internal bore retention hardware.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service-stock internal snap retaining ring for any housing or bore machined to accept a 1-1/2 inch internal snap ring groove per standard dimensional specifications.

Installation Notes

Internal snap retaining rings of this type are installed and removed by machinists or maintenance technicians using internal snap ring pliers sized for the bore diameter. Always power down and de-energize any equipment before disassembling housings or bearing bores. Confirm groove dimensions against ring specifications before installation to avoid under-seating or ring distortion. Do not reuse a ring that has been over-expanded or shows visible deformation.
