DIN1460 Heavy Duty Shaft Retaining Ring

DIN 1460 heavy-duty shaft retaining ring is a robust external retaining ring designed for high-stress automotive and industrial applications. These rings are used to secure components such as bearings, gears, pulleys, or other rotating parts on the exterior of a shaft. The DIN 1460 standard specifies retaining rings that are thicker and stronger than standard snap rings, making them ideal for heavy-duty environments where significant axial loads and vibrations are present.DIN 1460 retaining rings are made from thicker material compared to standard snap rings, providing superior strength and durability. This makes them suitable for applications involving high axial loads and dynamic forces.Like other external retaining rings, the DIN 1460 is installed on the outside of a shaft and fits into a groove to prevent components from moving axially outward.
