An External Retaining Ring, also known as an External snap Ring or circlip, is used to secure and retain the cone-bearing within a housing or on a shaft. It is designed to fit into the groove on the outer diameter of the cone bearing's outer race or the axle housing. The primary purpose is to prevent axial movement and ensure proper function of the Axle unit.Attributes:• Ensures proper alignment of the cone-bearing and minimizes axial play• Manufactured to precise specifications and are built for durability and reliabilityApplications:An External Retaining Ring acts as a mechanical stop, limiting the motion of the cone-bearing against axial forces.
