The 13 mm external retaining ring beside the 12 mm and the 14 mm

The 13 mm is number 11, 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 13 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 12 mm and the 14 mm.
• Ring thickness, limits (s_lim): 0.94 to 1 mm on the 13 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 12 mm and the 14 mm.
• Free diameter (d3): 11.9 mm on the 13 mm external retaining ring, against 11 mm on the 12 mm and 12.9 mm on the 14 mm.
• Free diameter, limits (d3_lim): 11.54 to 12 mm on the 13 mm external retaining ring, against 10.64 to 11.1 mm on the 12 mm and 12.54 to 13 mm on the 14 mm.
• Lug height (a): up to 3.4 mm on the 13 mm external retaining ring, against up to 3.3 mm on the 12 mm and up to 3.5 mm on the 14 mm.
• Radial width (b): 2 mm (reference) on the 13 mm external retaining ring, against 1.8 mm (reference) on the 12 mm and 2.1 mm (reference) on the 14 mm.
• Plier hole diameter (d5): at least 1.7 mm on the 13 mm external retaining ring, the same on the 12 mm and the 14 mm.
• Groove diameter (d2): 12.4 mm on the 13 mm external retaining ring, against 11.5 mm on the 12 mm and 13.4 mm on the 14 mm.
