Features and Benefits
The Locking External E- Ring features two prongs which extend from the inner circumference to the open end, locking the ring firmly in the groove. It has a bowed design, which eliminates "play" in an assembly.
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)
