The Rotor Clip CG-87SJ External Heavy Duty Retaining Ring is engineered to provide robust axial retention for assemblies operating under high thrust loads. Designed for 0.875" shaft diameters, this two-turn ring ensures 360‚° groove contact, enhancing the stability and reliability of mechanical systems. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel (SAE 1060-1090) and available in stainless steel grades AISI 302 and AISI 316, the CG-87SJ offers versatility to meet various application requirements. The ring's dimensions include a groove diameter ranging from 0.818" to 0.824", a groove width of 0.046" to 0.049", and a groove depth of 0.027". Its free diameter spans from 0.801" to 0.814", with a section thickness between 0.070" and 0.078". The standard material variant operates effectively up to 10,340 RPM, accommodating a thrust load ring safety factor of 3 (Pr 5,310 lbs) and a thrust load groove safety factor of 2 (Pg 1,670 lbs). The CG-87SJ is ideal for applications requiring secure axial retention under substantial thrust conditions, such as in heavy-duty machinery, automotive assemblies, and industrial equipment. By utilizing this retaining ring, fleet operations can achieve enhanced component stability, reduced maintenance intervals, and improved overall system performance.
