The 11 mm external retaining ring beside the 10 mm and the 12 mm
The 11 mm is number 9, counting from the smallest, of the 18 DIN 471 external retaining rings published here, from 3 mm to 20 mm.
- Ring thickness (s): 1 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 10 mm and the 12 mm.
- Ring thickness, limits (s_lim): 0.94 to 1 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 10 mm and the 12 mm.
- Free diameter (d3): 10.2 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, against 9.3 mm on the 10 mm and 11 mm on the 12 mm.
- Free diameter, limits (d3_lim): 9.84 to 10.3 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, against 8.94 to 9.4 mm on the 10 mm and 10.64 to 11.1 mm on the 12 mm.
- Lug height (a): up to 3.3 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 10 mm and the 12 mm.
- Radial width (b): 1.8 mm (reference) on the 11 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 10 mm and the 12 mm.
- Plier hole diameter (d5): at least 1.5 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, against at least 1.5 mm on the 10 mm and at least 1.7 mm on the 12 mm.
- Groove diameter (d2): 10.5 mm on the 11 mm external retaining ring, against 9.6 mm on the 10 mm and 11.5 mm on the 12 mm.
