The Stainless Steel External Circlip (DIN 471) is a precision-engineered retaining ring designed to provide reliable axial retention of components on shafts. Installed into a machined groove on the outside diameter of a shaft, it creates a positive shoulder that prevents bearings, gears, pulleys, bushes, and other components from moving axially. DIN 471 is the standard for external circlips used on shafts.
Manufactured from SS304 (A2) and SS316 (A4) stainless steel, these circlips offer excellent corrosion resistance, spring properties, and long service life, making them suitable for industrial, marine, automotive, and outdoor applications.
