Ronstan Retaining Clip - Stainless Steel

The Ronstan Retaining Clip in stainless steel is a precision fastening component engineered for marine, industrial, and equipment assembly applications where secure pin retention is essential. This compact retaining clip functions as a safety mechanism to prevent clevis pins from accidentally backing out during operation, vibration, or load shifts. Professionals across maritime, aerospace, and tactical equipment industries rely on Ronstan retaining clips to maintain system integrity and reduce maintenance downtime caused by loose hardware.

Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, this retaining clip features a 2.7mm (3/32") diameter with a 16mm (5/8") inner diameter, making it compatible with Ronstan clevis pins RF267 through RF274. The stainless steel construction delivers superior durability in saltwater, high-humidity, and chemically aggressive environments where standard steel fasteners would degrade rapidly. The clip's simple yet effective design creates a mechanical lock around the pin shaft, distributing load forces evenly to prevent shearing or deformation under sustained pressure.

Installers benefit from the Ronstan Retaining Clip's universal compatibility with the RF267–RF274 clevis pin range, simplifying inventory management across equipment platforms. The clip's lightweight profile (0.1 lbs) and compact 1 x 1 x 1 inch footprint make it ideal for space-constrained applications on boats, trailers, rigging systems, and structural assemblies. For anyone maintaining or assembling equipment requiring positive pin retention without welding or permanent modifications, this stainless steel retaining clip delivers reliable, field-replaceable security.
