CIRCLIP EXTERNAL

The External Circlip is a small, durable, circular metal ring with open ends that allow it to be expanded slightly to fit over a shaft. Once positioned in a groove on the shaft, it snaps back to its original shape, securely preventing lateral movement of components like bearings, gears, or pulleys.
