RING - GEAR (Linde LI147299)

LI147299: A damaged retaining ring can allow a gear to shift out of position, leading to mechanical failure. During inspection, a retaining ring may show signs of wear or deformation that compromise its holding force. Keeping a retaining ring in sound condition helps maintain the axial location of a gear on a shaft. This aftermarket replacement part references the Linde catalog number LI147299. The ring's plain mechanical function is to seat in a groove and prevent lateral movement of the gear. A concrete generic failure consequence is that a loose or broken ring can cause the gear to disengage, resulting in sudden power loss. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
