Documentation
Description
VSH retaining rings are axially assembled external beveled retaining rings and are part of Rotor Clip’s tapered section retaining ring line. Similar in appearance to standard SH rings, VSH rings feature a 15° beveled inner edge that wedges between the groove and the retained component when installed in a complementary angled groove, eliminating endplay and providing external axial retention.
