E Type Circlips DIN 6799

E Type Circlips incorporating DIN 6799 and BS3673/2 Metric Series

Also Available: E Type Circlips: N1500 American Specification

The most common form of radially fitted circlips for shafts with grooves. Provide a large shoulder on a relatively small shaft diameter. This range can be supplied stacked on rods for use with applicators and dispensers for rapid installation, thus resulting in sharply reduced assembly costs. Only the groove size is critical with this type of circlip, the shaft diameter can be varied widely.

Applicators are available for circlips sizes 0.8 to 15mm and are used to pick up the circlips, hold them securely while they are being installed and then release the circlip when they are fully assembled on the shaft. Because the applicators grasp the circlips on the underside of the tool, it is possible to install the circlip without turning the applicator – a feature which greatly increases assembly speed and reduced operator fatigue.
