Description
Overview:
The E Retainer Clip 6mm Single is a small, robust external fastener for securing components on a 6.0 mm shaft. Made from durable, hardened steel with a protective finish, it sits in a machined groove to prevent washers, bearings, pulleys, and spacers from moving laterally under vibration. Common across construction equipment and garden machinery, it helps maintain reliable assemblies in compact spaces where a low-profile fixing is required. Supplied individually so you can buy the exact quantity needed, it is a practical choice for repairs, servicing, and OEM-style builds. Suitable for many workshop and on-site tasks, this clip supports dependable retention on shafts found in mowers, compactors, generators, pumps, and small engines. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 903 1255 for accurate identification.
