Spring Steel E-Clips
Spring Steel E-Clips
E-clips also known as E-Rings, are used to secure parts onto a shaft. They fit into grooves in the side of the shaft for a snug fit. More often than not a E-Clip or E-Ring with fit inside a groove on a shaft. All of our E-Clips are made of spring steel with Black Oxide Coating. All of our E-Clips are imported from Quality Chinese Manufacturers and then conveniently packaged for little waste.
To determine the E-clip you need, measure the shaft and then order the same size clip. E-Clips are sized to the shaft and not to the the groove in the shaft. An E-clip fits right when it snaps into the groove and then floats freely or moves with just a little friction. It should take some force to pull the replacement E-clip off the shaft.
E-Clips and Snap Rings are similar except that E-Clips are installed from the side and can be installed with a small pair of needle nose pliers while snap rings are installed from the side with a special pair of snap ring pliers. Although Snap Rings can support a higher side load, sometimes this isn't necessary and E-Clips are easier to install and less likely to be damaged when installed.

Bought to replace on my front tractor wheel that fell off while mowing clipped it on no issues since. Seems better built than the factory one that broke

Clips are well formed of proper thickness.

It’s a fine product, but external retainer rings are typically sized by the size shaft they are for. The ring I received was for a 3/4†groove diameter, not 3/4†shaft diameter. Off to the hardware store I go…
