"FCH has worked well for us both on the sale side and in finding hard to find parts as well. We get inquiries at least once a week if not more often, and many have turned into sales over the years. "

Retaining Rings & Clips
Retaining rings, or circlips, are spring-type fasteners that hold components or assemblies onto a shaft or in a housing/bore when installed in a groove. Once installed, the exposed portion of the retaining ring acts as a shoulder which restricts the movement, or retains the specific component or assembly.
