Retaining Rings

Tinnerman: Retaining Rings

Tinnerman Grooveless retaining rings press over studs, shafts, or any round shape from .046" to 2.00" diameter. G-R-Rs become an integral part of the axial application, replacing snap or bearing rings, cotter pins, staking, swaging, spinning, heat forming, ultrasonics, coining, cementing, or upsetting...eliminating high-cost operations.

Tinnerman retaining rings are designed without slots, or shears, G-R-R&39;s will not "walk-off" or spring free. Low profile flat designs require a minimum of space. Wall dimensions as thin as .024" make retaining rings ideal for limited access locations. These retaining rings need as little as .032" of shaft or stud extension for full anchor.

Retaining rings&39; quality stainless steel construction assures long life, corrosion resistance, minimal distortion, dry finish, eliminates heat treat, finish and handling operations...and the extra costs they entail.

A full range of retaining ring sizes has been developed on modular tooling. Virtually any unlisted retaining ring size that falls within the limits of the tools can be made, for a one-time set up charge. Retaining ring sizes beyond this range can be made but require tooling.
