Crimp-On External Retaining Rings

Also known as X-washers, place these rings into the groove and squeeze tight with pliers to form a 360° closure. To remove, squeeze tabs on the opposite side of the opening.
1008 carbon steel rings are an economical choice with good strength. The zinc-plated finish is corrosion resistant in wet environments.
18-8 stainless steel rings have good corrosion resistance.
