Stainless Steel External Circlip, 6mm Shaft Diameter, 5.7mm Groove Diameter

Looking to attach a mechanical part to a shaft? Turn to these external circlips from RS PRO. They hold parts firmly in place without interfering with their rotational force.


The retaining rings are easy to install and remove using RS PRO circlip pliers. They fit into a groove on the outside of the shaft, which keeps them secure against high rotational speeds. They're suitable for outdoor use as they're made of corrosion-resistant steel.


These units are supplied in a durable storage compartment box and come in packs of 100. There's also a handy layout sheet included that provides dimensional information. Retaining rings like these are often used in applications involving turning parts, including wind turbines, electric motors and roller bearings.
