The Rotor Clip SE-17ST ZD External E-Style Retaining Ring is engineered to provide secure and reliable retention in radial applications. Designed for shafts with a diameter of 0.172 inches (11/64 inches), this retaining ring features a groove diameter of 0.127 inches, ensuring a precise fit within the groove. The ring's thickness ranges from 0.023 to 0.027 inches, accommodating various groove depths and widths. Constructed from high-strength carbon steel (SAE 1060-1090), it offers durability and resistance to deformation under stress. The zinc dichromate finish enhances corrosion resistance, making it suitable for applications exposed to moisture and corrosive environments. This retaining ring is compatible with standard applicators, including flat, 45‚°, 90‚°, and offset types, facilitating efficient installation. Its design ensures a secure fit, effectively retaining assemblies and preventing axial movement. The SE-17ST ZD is interchangeable with similar models from other manufacturers, such as Waldes Truarc X5133 17 and IRR 1000 X17, providing flexibility in sourcing. This retaining ring is ideal for use in automotive, military, aerospace, and other industries where secure retention of components is critical. Its robust construction and corrosion-resistant finish contribute to the longevity and reliability of machinery and equipment, reducing maintenance needs and downtime.
