Description
Overview:
The Retaining Ring for Makita LS1018L circular saws is a small but critical fastener that secures components on a shaft or within a groove to stop axial movement under load and vibration. Supplied as a Genuine Makita part (MPN JM23100115), it is engineered to meet the original specification for the LS1018L, ensuring the right fit and dependable performance. Typically made from hardened spring steel for elasticity and strength, the ring maintains alignment of mating parts and helps prevent premature wear of bearings, spacers, and other drivetrain or guard assemblies. If the original ring is missing, bent, or fatigued, replacing it restores mechanical stability and supports safe, smooth running of your saw during cutting tasks on site or in the workshop.
Key Features:
- Genuine Makita part for the LS1018L, matching original dimensions and groove fit
- Hardened spring steel construction for high fatigue resistance and long service life
- Secure axial retention to prevent component drift during start-up, load, and braking
- Stable under vibration, helping maintain alignment and cut accuracy
- Protective surface finish for added durability in dusty, workshop environments
- Easy to fit with standard circlip/snap-ring pliers; straightforward replacement procedure
- Supports safe operation by keeping critical assemblies correctly seated
- Cost-effective way to extend service life of spindles, bearings, and related parts
Typical Applications:
Used wherever the LS1018L saw requires axial retention, such as retaining bearings, spacers, or collars on shafts and within housings. Common during bearing changes, spindle or gearbox servicing, guard mechanism repairs, and general preventative maintenance to replace worn or distorted rings that no longer hold securely.
Also known as:
Snap ring, circlip, retaining clip, shaft retaining ring, C-clip, retention ring. These terms are often used interchangeably for this style of spring steel ring that locates in a machined groove to stop parts sliding along a shaft or out of a housing.
