What's this sort of circlip called - and where to get some?
I'm after a replacement retaining clip which sits on the output shaft
of an electric motor and retains a shear pin. The shear pin simply sits in a hole through the shaft, then around the shaft is a semicircular depression in which the retaining clip sits. Thus the retaining clip is a simple (split) toroid which sits in the groove. It's from a Vetus bow propeller and their price is £13.40 which seems a little excessive for a trivial little spring clip. Can anyone suggest what such a thing is called (maybe just a retaining clip I suppose) and where I might find somewhere that I can buy one by specifying its size? -- Chris Green |
