🔌 Function

Locks or retains a component in its assembled position, so it cannot move, turn or work loose in service.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Axial play, or a gear, bearing or shaft walking out of position where it should be held fast
• Clicking, knocking or rattling from the housing that changes with load
• A broken or displaced ring found in the oil, the sump or the bottom of a housing during service
• A component taking up against its housing because nothing is retaining it

🛠️ Service Notes

• Always fit a new snap ring rather than reusing the one you removed — a ring that has been sprung open once has lost tension
• Use proper snap-ring pliers and open the ring no further than it needs to go; overstretching it, or levering it in with a screwdriver, leaves it slack in the groove
• Clean the groove and check it for wear, burrs or spread before fitting, and make sure the ring snaps fully home right the way round — check it by eye, turning the assembly, not just by feel
• Where the ring has a chamfered or dished face, fit it the right way up with the sharp edge against the load
• Account for the old ring and any fragments; a piece of broken circlip left inside a gearcase or housing will do serious damage
