Circular snap ring

The circular snap ring has a uniform, constant cross-section, which means that the material used to make the retainer has the same width at any point along the circumference of the retainer. This costs less than conical and spiral retainers and provides only three-point contact with the groove.

Circular snap ring is an open ring formed and cut from a circular spring wire, and the Circular snap ring is designed for circular grooves in peripheral and internal or hole applications. Round wire clasp rings tend to have tighter tolerances; However, they have a lower load carrying capacity than square and rectangular clasp rings.

coil snap ring:
axially mounted retainers for shafts with semicircular grooves that fit more tightly into the grooves than conventional retainers, providing a higher and more uniform thrust load capacity. Made of carbon spring steel wire with hardened circular section.

Advantages of Circular snap ring:

  • No need to assemble or disassemble lugs, saving radial space;
  • Edges with rounded corners, no stamping burrs;
  • Square edge line, suitable for sharp Angle installation;
  • For special materials, no special tools are required;
  • It can be installed or removed without special tools.

Circular snap ring are elliptical when installed in a slot and form only three contact points, so they bear less force than conical retainers, making them an economical alternative to such retainers, depending on the application. They also provide greater clearance than conical retainers, but are more difficult to install or remove, and automotive transmissions are typical applications for circular clasp rings.

The Circular snap ring is a wire retaining ring made of carbon spring steel with a wide rectangular cross-section that provides a protruding shoulder for the retainer. Circular clasp can be used as inner ring and outer ring for groove applications outside the shaft or inside the hole and inside the housing. The inner and outer rings are available in a variety of gap sizes and point types to meet most application requirements.

The circular snap ring is generally annular, usually has one or more holes or slots inside, and its structure can be single, double or multi-layer, depending on the use needs and design requirements. Various fixing methods, including pressing, rotating, flipping and other mechanical structures, to ensure the stability of the connection.

Circular snap ring is favored for its wide range of applications, they are not only used in clothing, bags decoration and fixing, but also widely used in footwear, outdoor supplies and other fields. In addition, the circular buckle can also be used as a DIY decorative accessory to meet individual needs.

Circular snap ring in a variety of styles and designs to suit different styles and needs. They can be simple metal rings or more decorative clasp rings.

The specific installation method and use skills may vary depending on the style and structure of the buckle, but most buckle rings are designed with an easy-to-operate fixing mechanism to facilitate the user to quickly complete the installation and use.

Note:

  • When selecting the coil snap ring, the appropriate material, structure and style should be selected according to the specific use scenario and needs.
  • During the installation and use process, it is necessary to follow the product instructions or relevant instructions to ensure the correct installation and use of the buckle.
  • For occasions that need to withstand large tensile forces, buckle products with sufficient strength and durability should be selected.

As an important connection and fixing device, circular snap ring an important role in many fields. By understanding the various product knowledge of the circular snap ring, we can better choose and use the circular buckle.
