This 1" stainless steel external snap retaining ring (part SH-100-SS) is a replacement retaining ring for stainless steel hose reels and swivel repair kits. An external snap ring fits into a groove on the outside of a shaft or swivel body and locks components in place, keeping the swivel, bearings, and seals properly seated while the reel spins. If a retaining ring is lost, bent, or weakened during service, parts can shift or work loose, leading to leaks at the swivel, wobble, or reel failure. Stainless steel construction resists rust and corrosion from constant water exposure, cleaning chemicals, and outdoor use, so it holds up far better than plain steel rings on wash equipment.
Key features:
- 1" external snap retaining ring
