R-Clip

Release time  2020-10-13 09:03 page views

R-Clips, also known as R-pins or hitch pin clips, are simple yet essential fasteners formed into an "R" shape. They are designed to be inserted through a cross-drilled hole in a bolt, pin, or shaft, where their spring action and shape provide secure retention and prevent unintended withdrawal.

Typical Applications:

  • Axle & Pin Retention: Widely used to secure clevis pins, hitch pins, and axles in wheels, linkages, and agricultural equipment.

  • Safety & Quick-Release Mechanisms: Ideal for applications requiring a secure yet manually removable fastener without tools, such as in scaffolds, securing pins, and machinery guards.

  • General Industrial Use: A versatile, low-cost solution for retaining components in automotive, construction, and material handling equipment.

Our Product & Custom Capabilities:
We supply high-quality R-Clips made from spring steel or stainless steel, offering reliable elasticity and corrosion resistance. Available in a range of standard sizes, we also provide customization to meet specific needs:

  • Material & Finish: Choice of carbon spring steel or stainless steel (e.g., 302/304), with optional finishes like zinc plating for enhanced durability.

  • Dimensional Precision: Custom wire diameters, leg lengths, and overall span to ensure a perfect fit for your pin diameter and application space.

  • Design Variations: Options such as different head styles or extended legs for easier handling and installation.

Our R-Clips offer a quick, economical, and effective solution for secure retention in countless industrial and equipment applications.
