E-Ring Retaining Clip Design
The 20298600 Retainer uses an E-ring style design that fits into a groove on a compatible shaft or mechanical assembly.
Once properly installed, the retaining clip helps keep the associated component from moving laterally or coming off the shaft during normal equipment operation.
E-rings are commonly used to secure components such as:
-
Shafts
-
Pins
-
Linkages
-
Hubs
-
Levers
-
Control components
-
Pivot assemblies
-
Other mechanical hardware
The exact installation location depends on the equipment model and assembly.
Genuine Ariens & Gravely Replacement Part
The 20298600 Circular Clip is an OEM service part used on select Ariens and Gravely equipment.
Genuine OEM hardware is manufactured for the intended equipment application and helps maintain the original assembly configuration.
Using the correct retaining clip is important because differences in:
-
Clip diameter
-
Groove diameter
-
Material thickness
-
Retaining force
-
Shaft dimensions
can affect whether the clip will properly secure the component.
Compatible Equipment Brands
Part number 20298600 is cataloged for select equipment from:
-
Ariens
-
Gravely
-
EverRide
-
Great Dane
Because this retaining clip can be used in different locations depending on the machine, verify your equipment model, serial number, and illustrated parts diagram before ordering.
Replaces Older Part Numbers
The 20298600 Retainer supersedes older OEM references including:
-
020164
-
20164
If your older Gravely or Ariens parts information specifies 020164 or 20164 E-Ring, 20298600 is the updated replacement part number where applicable.
Ideal for Equipment Repair
The 20298600 circular clip is a practical replacement when the original retainer has become:
-
Bent
-
Broken
-
Missing
-
Corroded
-
Stretched
-
Damaged during disassembly
-
Unable to stay securely in its groove
Retaining clips can sometimes lose their original tension after removal or damage, so replacement is recommended when the existing clip no longer fits securely.
Installation & Maintenance
Before installing the circular clip:
-
Park the equipment on a flat and stable surface.
-
Turn off the engine and remove the ignition key.
-
Allow all moving components to stop completely.
-
Locate the shaft, pin, or assembly requiring the retainer.
-
Remove the damaged or existing retaining clip.
-
Inspect the retaining groove for damage, dirt, or excessive wear.
-
Position the 20298600 E-Ring Retainer correctly over the groove.
-
Install the clip using the appropriate retaining-ring tool or service procedure.
-
Verify that the clip is completely seated in the groove.
-
Confirm that the retained component is secure before operating the equipment.
Always follow the applicable Ariens or Gravely service procedures when servicing retaining clips, shafts, linkages, or moving components.
