Ring-Retaining 32151-61

This metal retaining ring, otherwise known as a snap ring, holds parts in place in your lawn equipment, such as blades, shafts, pulleys, or other rotating components, to prevent them from sliding off or shifting. A broken ring may be warped, cracked, or have missing sections. You can tell if it is damaged when the components in your machine are wobbly or falling off. To remove a retaining ring, you will need a pair of needle-nose pliers or lock/snap ring pliers that fit into the grooves of the ring. By using the pliers to release the tension on the ring, you can carefully slide it off the machine. Consult your user manual for instructions on the removal process and to confirm how many rings your machine will need. This replacement part is sold individually and is produced by the original equipment manufacturer so that it precisely fits your machine.
