Crescent & E Rings

Crescent & E Rings

Crescent and E rings are radially-assembled retaining rings that are designed to snap into the machined groove of a shaft creating retention. These rings are ideal, especially when clearance is minimal, as the section height is narrow and provides great clearance capabilities. The most common use for E rings is to secure a component in a bore or to a shaft. Applications range from hub assemblies on trucks and cars to the grooved shaft of a conveyor roller. 

G&G Hydraulics’s selection of crescent and E rings includes a wide range of sizes to fit nearly any application, from industrial and commercial to automotive and aerospace machining. They’re available in stainless steel, spring steel, and copper. Enjoy fast and efficient installation with a new external retaining ring from our inventory.

Installing E Rings

Installation of E rings is fairly simple. Follow these steps: 

  1. Insert the closed end of the external retaining ring into the opening of the applicator and leave the open ends of the clip facing away from the applicator. 
  2. Position the open ends of the E Ring clip in the groove of the shaft and press it into place.
  3. Check the clip to ensure it’s secure in place and seated evenly.
