Like a thin washer with serrated inner diameter that you push over a shaft to retain something on it. From memory they are dished slightly on one face (the side that goes on first) so that the serrated bits bite into the shaft material.

Must be dirt cheap but can I find em on eBay?!

Circlip? Or is that something else?

The domed one sided starlock jobbies i've always had to remove come off
quietly with not much fuss.... but the little *******s are bending their
insides during that process, so they never want to go back on without a
fight,

There's probably a proper tool to remove them in a re-useable condition, and
a couple of screwdrivers wiggled about between them and the non rotating
parts of the item isnt it.

Crown washer

don;t think so - images (off goggle) show a washer with an *outer* of
serrations (presume to resist vibration from loosening parts?)

"starlock" is the first dead hit, tho there could be others?

Waht I want one for is to secure the pedal of a kids bike back onto
the plain steel spindle - the original is capped with a chunky chromed
"thimble sized" cap - for weather resistance perhaps? - when in place
you wouldn't know it was a starlock undemeath....

I think 'starlock domed' are the best terms. Maybe this:

I think they're only available in even numbered mm sizes.

Not circlips, they are not whole circles. Sorry.

Circlips need a groove in the bar to ping into... or a groove around the
inside of a hole to ping out against,
both types much prefer ping****iting across the garage of course,

Always worth trying the original manufacturer for samples, if you only
