Circlip and Retaining Ring Set, högert technik HT8G503 — 225 pcs internal and external

Set of 225 circlips and retaining rings from högert technik, model HT8G503, designed to provide axial retention for shafts, housings and rotating or sliding machine parts. The set contains a selection of commonly used internal and external snap rings in multiple diameters, allowing quick replacement and secure fastening in repair, maintenance and assembly operations. Materials and surface finish are suited for mechanical applications where standard snap-ring performance is required.

Advantages

The set combines internal and external rings in one kit, reducing the need to purchase individual sizes. A broad range of diameters covers frequent workshop and field requirements for automotive, industrial and domestic equipment maintenance. The rings are supplied in practical quantities to support multiple repair jobs and small production runs without repeated restocking.

Suitable for

• Securing shafts and axles in bearings and housings
• Fixing components on bores and grooved shafts in mechanical assemblies
• Maintenance and repair of pumps, gearboxes, motors and transmissions
• Small-scale production and prototyping where snap-ring axial location is needed

Key specifications

• Total quantity: 225 pieces with both internal and external types
• Material: spring steel suitable for snap-ring applications
• Finish: corrosion-resistant plating or passivation suitable for general use
• Range of nominal diameters: multiple common sizes for standard shafts and bores
• Includes retaining rings designed for axial load and radial fit in grooves

How to use

Choose the correct ring type (internal for bore grooves, external for shaft grooves) and the matching diameter for the groove location. Use appropriate circlip pliers to expand external rings or compress internal rings, engage the ring into the groove and release the pliers to seat the ring securely. Inspect groove dimensions and ring condition before installation to ensure correct fit and to avoid deformation during fitting.

Usage recommendations

Store rings in a dry environment and keep sizes separated to avoid damage. For critical or high-load applications, verify material and hardness compatibility and consider replacing rings showing wear or corrosion. Use suitable pliers and eye protection during installation to reduce risk of ring ejection.
