Features and Benefits
The External Wide Ear Retaining Rings feature wide ears which offer extra retention surface against the retained part. They also come in thinner sizes.
MATERIALS:
•Carbon Spring Steel (SAE 1060-1090/UNS G10600-G10900) High strength and reliability; Austempered to eliminate brittleness and ensure strength.
•Stainless Steel (Armco PH 15-7 Mo) Extra strength; Corrosion-Resistant; Prevents atmospheric oxidation up to 900 degrees F; Minimal distortion; High ultimate tensile strength of 225,000 psi; High creep strength
•Beryllium Copper (Alloy #25/UNS C17200) Conductivity; Excellent corrosion resistance, especially in sea air and sea water atmospheres
FINISHES:
•Plain(No finish); Phosphate Coating( Carbon Steel Retaining Rings); Zinc Plating (yellow dichromate post plating finish - 96 hour salt spray protection)
•Mechanical Zinc Plating (For SAE 1060-1090 steel rings - eliminates hydrogen embrittlement)
•Zinc Dichromate Lacquer (Corrosion protection of up to 240 hours of salt spray protection)
