Description: Constant section retaining rings feature a uniform, constant section. The material used to make the ring is the same width at any point along the circumference of the ring. These cost less than tapered and spiral retaining rings and provide three-point contact with the groove.

Customization: We can customize wire retaining clips according to customer’s needs.

Advantages of constant section retaining rings:

• No assembly/disassembly lugs = space saving in radial direction
• Edges with radius, no stamping burrs
• Square edge wire for sharp-edged installations
• No special tooling for exotic materials
• No special tooling for installing and removal necessary
• Conform to DIN 471/472
• Higher ring shear
• Special ends for specific applications
• Heavy duty sections for higher rotational capacities

How to form a wire retaining clip: Forming a wire retaining clip is a process that can be completed using a few simple tools. First cut a piece of wire to the desired length, then bend the wire into a circular shape. Next, twist the ends of the wire together to form a loop and pinch the loop together to create the snap ring.

Different types of wire retaining clips: There are three main types of wire retaining clips:

• Open-end ring — a ring with two open ends that can be easily installed and removed
• Closed-end ring — has a small section at one end that is closed off for greater security
• Screw-together ring — held together by screws for the most secure connection

How to install a wire retaining clip: Identify the groove in which the clip will sit, compress the ring so that it fits into the groove, then release the ring so that it expands and holds the components together. Installation is typically performed with snap ring pliers or similar ring installation tools.

Uses and applications: Wire retaining clips are used to fasten parts, secure hoses or cables, and prevent shafts from axial movement or rotation. Common applications include:

• Securing door panels and interior trim
• Attaching fenders and body parts in automotive assemblies
• Holding door handles or moving parts in place
• General mechanical retention in construction and machinery

Benefits of using wire retaining clips:

• Ease of installation using pliers, ring openers, or dedicated installation tools
• Versatility for static and dynamic applications
• Strength suitable for strenuous applications
