U-Shaped Snap Ring
U-shaped snap rings are versatile and reliable components essential for securing parts in various mechanical assemblies.
Explore the design, applications, and installation methods of C-shaped snap rings, versatile retaining rings used in various industries for securing components onto shafts or within bores.
Download PDFC-shaped snap rings are versatile and reliable components essential for securing parts in various mechanical assemblies. Understanding their design, applications, advantages, and the appropriate installation methods ensures optimal performance and longevity in their respective applications.
C-shaped snap ring is the most common snap ring. Mainly based on the size of anti-friction tile, the diameter and thickness are similar to the matching anti-friction tile, and the length varies from 20mm to 70mm. It is mainly connected to the wear-resistant tile by spot welding when installing the wear-resistant tile, so as to fix and prevent the wear-resistant tile from falling off.
Its distinctive C-shaped design offers flexibility and ease of installation, making it a preferred choice in various mechanical applications where traditional fasteners or adhesives are impractical.
While some C-shaped snap rings can be installed manually, specialized tools are available to ensure proper placement without damaging the ring or associated components. These tools include:
Snap rings are used in conjunction with boiler tubes erosion shields, which is a clip that easily installs boiler tubes erosion shields to the tube.
The snap ring and Boiler Tubes Erosion Shields are overlapped and welded, generally about 190-200 degrees Erosion Shields is a 180-degree semicircle), but also leave a welding position for easy welding and fixing. Generally, each piece of Boiler Tubes Erosion Shields needs to be equipped with 2-4 snap rings with a pitch of 200-500mm.
The anti-wear snap ring is also called clamp, buckle, tube clamp, etc.
The main role of the anti-wear tile snap ring: the role of fixing the anti-wear tile to avoid problems such as the anti-wear tile falling off during installation.
The types of common anti-wear tile rings can be divided into: U-shaped lap type snap ring, butt-type semicircular snap ring.
All products are purchased to proprietary customized specifications as well as normal industry standards with supporting documentation.
The inner diameter of the U-shaped snap ring is the outer diameter of the wear-resistant tile plus the thickness of the wear-resistant tile, and the length varies from 20mm to 70mm. It will be 5mm more in semicircle. The extra part during installation will hold the wear-resistant tile and then spot weld. Compared with the butt-type semicircular snap ring...

Custom snap rings are the recommended method for tube shield attachment.
Different types of stainless steel are selected according to the specific conditions of different working conditions.
The boiler was originally designed to be accurate. Different materials have different temperature resistance and mechanical strength, generally has a temperature resistance of 600 ℃ or less.
We can also supply boiler tubes erosion shields of other materials.
Generally, boiler tubes erosion shields are also installed to prevent further wear of the tubes and cause serious consequences such as boiler explosion.
The main role is to protect the heating surface of the boiler pipes, reduce pipeline wear, and increase the heating surface of the pipes.
The snap ring is a short section that is installed on the pipe in conjunction with the wear-resistant tile. Generally, it is welded to the wear-resistant tile by lap welding, that is, to cover the wear-resistant tile slightly, so it is larger than the wear-resistant tile. The opening arc is around 190-200 degrees, the welding position needs to be set aside to facilitate welding and fixing. The width of the snap ring must not be less than 20mm.
The installation requirements of anti-friction tiles of different shapes are slightly different. Basically, each anti-friction tile is installed with not less than 2-4 snap rings. The snap ring and the anti-friction tile are welded together to prevent expansion due to heat. The tiles fall off, and the joints are required to be fully welded.
Generally, boiler tubes erosion shields are also installed to prevent further wear of the tubes and cause serious consequences such as boiler explosion.
The main role is to protect the heating surface of the boiler pipes, reduce pipeline wear, and increase the heating surface of the pipes.
