Rue™ Rings
Patent No. 4,592,689

A Pivot Point Exclusive. Revolutionary Rue Ring Cotters surround the shaft. Automatic lock makes this one of the safest cotters available today. Best used in light to medium applications. Rue Ring cotters install fast without tools.

Additional feature is the manual secondary lock which tensions the Rue Ring tight and dampens vibration.

Made of hard drawn MB spring wire, zinc plated or stainless type 302. Easy to install - easy to remove.

HOLE PLACEMENT
END SHAFT USE ONLY

Rue Ring Cotters will retro fit most standard applications without design changes.

Total width of any Rue Ring equals 3 of its wire diameters. The straight wire shaft which goes through the pin hole is one, plus two additional wire loops, one on each side, front and back.

Recommended hole size is 2 times the wire diameter of the selected Rue Ring. This leaves the Rue Ring short of interfering with effective shaft length.

Recommended web thickness is a minimum of 1 wire diameter and a maximum of 2 wire diameters. A thicker web results in more holding power but makes installation and removal more difficult.
