Description

When you’re running a hipper through tough field conditions, the last thing you need is a bearing housing coming apart on you. This retaining ring keeps everything locked in place where it belongs, preventing costly downtime when you’re trying to get fields prepped. If you’ve noticed play in your hipper’s bearing assembly or heard grinding noises, a worn retaining ring might be the culprit.

What You’re Getting

Precise 4.3 inch outer diameter for a secure fit in SMA3091 housings
Heavy-duty construction that handles the constant vibration and impact of field work
Direct replacement for original AMCO parts – no modifications needed
Proper .109 inch thickness maintains correct bearing clearances

Built for Real Farm Work

This ring fits AMCO hipper equipment that’s designed to handle the demanding job of soil preparation and residue management. Whether you’re working corn stubble, preparing seedbeds, or breaking up compacted soil, your hipper’s bearing assembly takes a beating from rocks, dirt, and constant movement.

Made to Last

Farm equipment bearings fail when dirt gets where it shouldn’t be, and a good retaining ring is your first line of defense. This one’s built to maintain its grip and keep bearing components properly seated, even when you’re working in dusty conditions or dealing with the shock loads that come with hitting rocks or hard ground.

Good to Know

Installation requires disassembling the bearing housing, so it’s a good time to inspect and repack the bearings while you’re at it. Clean everything thoroughly before reassembly – old grease mixed with dirt acts like grinding compound and will destroy your new parts quickly.
