Most people have some understanding of retaining rings, but open retaining rings may be less familiar. As the name suggests, an open retaining ring is a non-closed retaining ring, often used for fixing components, and is widely used.

I. Definition of Open Retaining Rings

Open retaining rings have an E-shaped opening and are used to fix components on a shaft. They are suitable for open single rings with a nominal diameter D=1.2~15MM.

II. Application Examples of Open Retaining Rings

Open retaining rings are generally used to fix parts such as bearings and gears on a shaft.

Fixing bearings on a shaft

Note the relationship between the outer diameter (D) of the retaining ring and the bearing shoulder diameter (Lo); D needs to meet the requirement

Fixing gears on a shaft

A groove is machined on the gear, with the groove depth equal to the diameter of the cylindrical pin. The retaining ring is used in conjunction with a cylindrical pin to fix the gear. Note the relationship between the outer diameter (D) of the retaining ring and the gear root circle (df); D needs to meet the requirement

Fixing other parts on a shaft

The retaining ring is used in conjunction with a cylindrical pin to fix the parts.

III. Design Requirements for Open Retaining Rings:

In the design process of open retaining rings, the key is the matching of the nominal diameter, opening, thickness of the retaining ring with the width and diameter of the shaft groove. Different diameter shafts are matched with different Model retaining rings. The design requirements are recommended in the national standard GBT-896-1986-Open Retaining Rings “E” rings. Since open retaining rings are standard parts, as long as they are designed according to the standard, standard retaining rings are readily available on the market.
