Description
If you’ve noticed loose play in your transmission input shaft or heard grinding noises when shifting, there’s a good chance this little circlip has given up the ghost. This small but mighty retaining clip keeps your input bearing properly seated in the housing, preventing shaft wobble that can destroy expensive transmission internals. When it fails, you’ll know it right away – and replacing it now saves you from a major rebuild later.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-formed spring steel construction that holds its tension over time
- Exact fit for input bearing housing – no shimming or modification needed
- Proper grip strength to keep bearings locked in place under load
- Corrosion-resistant finish that stands up to transmission fluid and moisture
Built for Real Farm Work
This circlip fits classic Massey Ferguson tractors from the 35 series workhorses through the popular 100 and 200 series models. Whether you’re running a trusty 35 on hobby farm duties, a 135 for hay operations, or a 240 for row crop work, this is the same clip that came from the factory. These vintage machines are still earning their keep on farms everywhere, handling everything from loader work to field cultivation.
Made to Last
Farm transmissions see constant load changes, temperature swings, and vibration that can work circlips loose over time. This one’s made from quality spring steel that maintains its grip even after thousands of hours of operation. The precision manufacturing ensures it seats properly in the groove and won’t back out under stress.
Installation Notes
You’ll need to split the tractor to access this clip, so it’s typically replaced during clutch work or transmission rebuilds. Use proper circlip pliers to avoid damaging the clip during installation – needle-nose pliers will slip and potentially bend the ends. Make sure the bearing is fully seated before installing the clip, and double-check that it’s properly engaged in the groove all the way around.
