Description
The retaining ring is made of spring steel. It is suitable for securing bearings mounted on shafts.
What is this retaining ring used for in a transfer case?
This retaining ring (or circlip) is specifically designed to secure bearings mounted on the shafts within the transfer case. It prevents axial movement, ensuring that the internal gears and shafts stay perfectly aligned during operation.
Which transfer case models is this circlip compatible with?
This part is highly versatile and fits several major units, including BMW ATC350, ATC35L, ATC450, and ATC45L. It is also compatible with Mercedes-Benz DCD Offroad and DCS units, Land Rover ITC DD295 and ITC PLA, as well as Hyundai ATC systems.
Is it safe to reuse my old retaining ring during a repair?
Professional mechanics generally recommend replacing retaining rings whenever a bearing is serviced. Because they are made of spring steel, they can lose their tension or become slightly deformed during removal, which might lead to the bearing shifting under heavy load.
What material is this part made from?
The ring is manufactured from high-grade spring steel. This material is chosen for its ability to retain its shape and clamping force even under the high temperatures and constant vibrations found inside a modern AWD drivetrain.
Why is a secure retaining ring critical for my BMW or Mercedes xDrive system?
If a retaining ring fails, the bearing it holds can walk out of its seat. This causes misalignment in the transfer case, leading to clicking noises, vibrations, or in severe cases, a total mechanical failure of the 4WD system.
