A guide to external snap rings
21 days agoExternal constant section retaining rings, commonly known as external snap rings, are designed to secure components on a shaft within mechanical assemblies. Installed into a machined shaft groove, the portion of the ring protruding from the groove creates a shoulder that retains components in place. Rotor Clip manufactures constant section snap rings in both external and internal configurations, with this guide focusing specifically on external snap ring designs.
Adhesives versus welding for marine applications
39 days agoTECHSiL and 3M are challenging some long-held assumptions about how boats should be assembled and repaired. Welding and riveting will remain essential across the marine industry. However, they are no longer the only credible options available to designers, builders and repair professionals.
