SPRING (Yale YT031549100)

YT031549100: A worn retaining ring can allow assembled components to separate under load, leading to mechanical failure. This aftermarket replacement part cross-references the Yale part number YT031549100. The spring functions as a retaining ring, holding components in position within an assembly. Its plain mechanical function is to exert radial pressure against a groove or shoulder. A concrete generic failure consequence is that a broken or fatigued retaining ring can cause sudden disassembly of the joined parts. During routine service, a technician may find a retaining ring that has lost tension or cracked. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
