Thrust ring size

[Mike6368]

Anyone know what size thrust rings I need to order for 75mm and 54mm from McMaster please?

It’s for snap ring hardware.

The standard external spiral rings you can get from McMaster will not fit in Aeropack retainers. While you can grind them down to fit (I've done it on some AMW cases), I have found that you can buy ones that fit directly from Smalley:

54mm	Smalley WST-212-S02	Spiral 2.125" shaft, 0.078" thk, 0.141 wall	http://www.smalley.com/ring/wst-212
76mm	Smalley WST-300-S02 (stainless)	Spiral 3" Shaft, .093 thick, 0.188 wall	(McMaster: 91665A630 does not fit aeropack)

Note that Loki uses thinner rings, so you'd need different parts (or just get them from Loki).

Ok, Thanks Andy!

I have built up this list over the years and find it very useful. Alan
