Circlips External Imperial N1400

Circlips External Imperial N1400. The best way to identify your requirement for an external circlip is to measure the shaft it is going on (do not measure in the groove) if this is not possible and you have the circlip at hand, measure from the outside left of the circlip to the inside right in the middle, this will give you the correct size.

These circlips are external axially applied i.e. are expanded (with the aid of circlip pliers) to pass over a shaft and then released tp spring back  into a groove. Suitable for the majority of normal engineering applications, providing a rigid, yet tough, load bearing shoulder on a shaft.
