Lee Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Can anyone help me out with a circlip like similar to this? Its to fit on the back of a cam lock & sits in a lip 9.3mm circumference I managed to break it being a bit to egar with the circlip pliers & since I don't make keys for locks to often I don't have any spares. If no one has one, where can I get one? Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Posted March 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Thanks to graham the job has just gone out the door, with the customer none the wiser, but thrilled to have keys for the lock! Never having needed to replace a circlip before, I'd have faffed about making phone calls, trying to explain what size I needed & probably ordering a million circlip set that I'd never use again & I'd have still wound up with the wrong size. This is where the forum is so valuable! I have made a £3.00 donation to the Jimmy Mizen foundation, which I hope covers it. Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercoulson Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 If it helps, it looks like your gauge has stopped at 10mm, assuming this is inside the groove for the cir clip what you needed was an 10mm external (goes round the outside as opposed to inside to hold things in) circlip.

kev Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Can anyone help me out with a circlip like similar to this?[attachment=1]DSCI0955.JPG[/attachment] Lee Why did you need another broken circlip? Lol - were you gonna take the kids fishing? In all seriousness though, I have seen a little plastic box full of different sized circlips for sale recently. Can't remember where though! Maybe JTF trade wholesalers for about a quid! I'll have a look next time I'm there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
