Retaining rings also find their use in several other things, such as
wind turbines, fitness equipment, bearing retention, doorknobs,
bicycles, gas pumps, in office furniture, and many others.

applications and are not subject to substantial heavy thrust loads.
They fit on the outside of your application or shaft. The prongs or
teeth each “push” against the external portion of the shaft to stay

in the shaft, they are also the absolute perfect choice for jobs
involving lower forces.
