External Circlip for 5mm shaft diameter (Mild Steel black coated)

Diameter: 5mm
Material: Mild Steel
Finish: Black coated

External Circlips are circular retaining rings designed to fit onto a machined groove on the outside of a shaft. They provide a secure axial hold, preventing components like bearings, gears, or pulleys from sliding off while allowing rotation. Unlike internal circlips, which are fitted inside a bore or housing, external circlips are used on shafts, making them ideal for retaining components externally.

Material & Finish:
Crafted from high-strength mild steel, these circlips offer excellent mechanical performance for everyday industrial use. The black coating adds an extra layer of corrosion resistance and minimizes wear due to friction, ensuring durability even in challenging environments.

Applications:
External circlips are widely used in:

• Automotive assemblies: securing wheels, axles, and transmission parts

• Heavy machinery & industrial equipment: retaining rotating parts on shafts

• Gear systems: preventing axial movement of components

• Agricultural and construction equipment: reliable retention under high loads
