Smalley Self-Locking Retaining Rings

Smalley’s Self-Locking Retaining Rings are multiple-turn rings that have self-locking mechanisms. There are two types of self-locking rings. Spirolox Tab and Slot rings have a small tab on either the inside, outside, or center of the radial wall, along with an aligned slot on the next turn for it to “lock” into. Revolox rings have a dome and slot feature and allow for simpler installation and removal.

	Revolox® Self-Locking Rings for High RPM From electric motors to transmissions, the Revolox Self-Locking Ring from Smalley is engineered with your high rotational capacity applications in mind. The revolutionary retaining ring enables engineers to design around high RPM requirements safely, easily, and with ease of assembly for high production volumes. The 'dome and slot' design prevents ring expansion, safely securing your application at high RPM. This makes it possible to operate at higher speeds, withstand vibration, function under rapid acceleration, and absorb a degree of impact loading.
	Tab and Slot Self-Locking Retaining Rings Engineered with a unique tab and slot to lock the ring from expanding.  Allows for easy visual verification to enure proper installation.  Available in heavier cross-sections of wire.
	Centerline Locking Feature The self-locking feature is found in the center and therefore does not interfere with mating components.
