Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use these circlips effectively, you must utilize internal circlip pliers that match the eyelet holes of the selected size. Avoid over-expanding the clips during installation, as this can lead to permanent deformation and reduced holding power. Compatibility is based on the DIN 472 standard, so ensure your housing grooves are machined accordingly. For maintenance, keep the storage box closed when not in use to prevent dirt and debris from accumulating on the oiled surface of the clips. If the clips become dry due to excessive degreasing, apply a light coat of machine oil to maintain their corrosion resistance.
