Stainless spring steel external circlips are also known as C-clips, Jesus clips, retaining rings or snap rings. They are fasteners, and they consist of a semi-flexible ring which can be snapped into place, usually into a machined groove. They are used when it is important for a part to be able to rotate but not to be able to move laterally, so they are often used in turbines, motors and pistons. External circlips fit around the outside of a shaft and exert pressure inwards. They are usually fitted with specialised circlips pliers, which incidentally we also sell.

Simply Bearings carries a wide range of stainless spring steel external circlips as well as un-sprung external circlips. We stock a comprehensive range of diameters suitable for all sorts of projects and repairs.

Once you have chosen the stainless spring steel external circlips that you require, you can order and pay for them by using the secure checkout on our site. We accept credit or debit cards, PayPal and bank transfers.
