Custom Retaining Rings

You need custom retaining rings? Borrelly Spring Washers is your trusted partner. We have over 70 years of expertise in the design and manufacturing of custom spring washers, including internal retaining rings and external retaining rings. Whether your constraints involve specific dimensions, axial load retention, temperature or corrosion resistance, our engineering team will work with you to create a tailored solution that meet your technical specifications.

Retaining Rings Customized to Fit Your Needs

We are committed to providing quick, expert responses that match your application’s constraints, including:

  • Dimensional requirements (internal/external diameters, groove fit)
  • Axial load to withstand
  • Operating environment (temperature, humidity, chemical exposure)
  • Material thickness
  • Installation process (manual, semi-automatic, automated)

Whether for static retention, axial load absorption, or high-speed rotational applications, we work with you to define the most efficient solution for your assembly constraints. Our custom retaining rings are designed to provide secure axial retention for components with minimal assembly effort and no rotational movement.

Our engineering team will assist from design to production with a solid technical expertise combining responsiveness, advice and proximity, whether your custom retaining rings need to be produced in small quantity (as low as 10 parts) or high volumes (up to several million parts).

Each retaining ring we manufacture is fully traceable and can be delivered upon request with:

  • Material certificates
  • Geometry and dimensional control reports
  • Load or deformation test data
  • Cleanliness and inspection documentation
