Interactive Design Guide  Cross Reference Guide   RCU-Retaining Ring Tutorial   Applications    Automated Assembly   Materials, Finishes, and Packaging   Formulas
Interactive Design Guide: This guide will help you find the right retaining ring for your application. Plug in certain basic parameters and the guide will recommend a certain style as well as suggest alternatives based on unique application requirements.

Cross Reference Guide: This tool will match competitor part numbers to Rotor Clip part numbers.

RCU-Retaining Ring Tutorial: This training guide will give You complete information on all the retaining rings we sell.

Applications: Here You will find a variety of examples of how the industry uses retaining rings.

Automated Assembly: Automated Assembly is used in the manufacturing process as a cost reduction tool that additionally achieves increased production rate and added quality through repeatability.The same holds true for automated assembly of retaining rings. Parts can be assembled fast, reducing costs without sacrificing quality. Properly designed installation equipment shuttles the ring into the groove without disruption and guards against permanent set (overstretching/over compressing of ring) to ensure a tight fit. Here you will find valuable information and design considerations in connection with automated assembly of axial retaining rings.

Materials, Finishes, and Packaging: Here You will find detailed information about the materials and finishes used in the production of Rotor Clip retaining rings, as well as the different packaging options.

Formulas: These pages contain valuable formulas and examples in regard to calculating Edgemargin, Groove location, and determining ring feasibility.
