There's a fairly common style of small internal circlip which has three inward-facing lobes, so that it works as a washer as well as a circlip, but I don't know what these are called.
I've got a spring-loaded centre punch, nothing expensive, whose circlip has fractured, and if I knew where to buy a replacment it might just possibly be worth while.
Anyone know the correct description, and/or where to buy just a few?
E Clip.
Yes same issue on a Denon Cassette deck rewind spindle here. Really annoying isn't it? Brian
Not sure about that, the ends are very close together on these ones. Brian
Just enter "e circlip" in the search box of eBay and you will be spoilt for choice.
Of course, they are external rather than internal.
I wonder if the OP actually meant internal (circlip inside a housing) of external (circlip round a rod or similar).
If it looks like these;
its a E clip.
I've got an assortment if you only need 1.
Aren't they a plastic material, maybe even just a very flexible thin washer with a round hole in the middle?
