Description

A C-clip is a retaining ring with open ends that snap into place. It is commonly fitted onto a pin, shaft, or other similar components to allow for rotation but prevents the component from moving from side to side. A C-clip fits into a machined groove and acts as a shoulder that holds the part in place snugly. On a lawn mower, a C-clip retaining ring can be found on the wheel axle. It will fit into a narrow groove on the axle to prevent the washer and the wheel from moving.With repeated use, a C-clip can become worn and need replacement. Replacing a C-clip requires removing the old one and installing a new one. While replacing a C-clip is typically a quick process, it must be done with care. Their spring action can launch them when they are being removed or installed, and they are notorious for getting lost. This C-clip is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and it is sold individually. It is compatible with lawn mowers made by Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Bolens, and Yard-Man.
