Description
Overview:
The 24mm External Circlip is a robust retaining ring used to secure components on a rotating or stationary shaft by locating in a machined groove. Made from hardened spring steel, it provides the strength and elastic grip needed to resist axial movement under load and vibration. This size is intended for shafts with a nominal 24mm diameter and is commonly found across construction equipment and garden machinery, including drive shafts, bearings, hubs, pulleys, and sprockets. It helps keep assemblies correctly positioned and reduces the risk of premature wear caused by drifting parts. Sold individually, it's a practical choice for repairs and routine maintenance when only one or a few clips are required. A wide size range (12mm to 25mm) supports mixed fleets and varied workshop needs.
Key Features:
- Nominal size: 24mm, for shafts with a 24mm diameter
- Manufactured from hardened spring steel for strength and resilience
- Positive axial retention to prevent lateral movement of components
- Twin lugs/eyes for easy installation and removal using external circlip pliers
- Low-profile design that fits neatly within the groove without fouling adjacent parts
- Reliable under vibration and shock loads typical of site and garden equipment
- Clean, consistent geometry for dependable seating in the groove
- Suitable for securing bearings, gears, pulleys, sprockets, and spacers
- Sold individually to match the exact quantity needed for a repair
- Available alongside other common sizes from 12mm to 25mm for broader coverage
Typical Applications:
Used on shaft grooves to retain bearings, collars, pulleys, sprockets, couplings, and spacers in gearboxes, wheel hubs, drive systems, pumps, and small engines. Common across compactors, generators, pressure washers, mowers, and other workshop or site machinery where reliable axial location is essential for safe and consistent operation.
