Description

Overview

The camshaft circlip 1.5 inch general use secures brake camshafts and related hardware in heavy vehicle hubs and brake assemblies. It suits workshops that need a reliable retaining clip for common 1.5 inch camshaft ends. As a result, you can service multiple trailer and axle combinations with one straightforward part.

Features

This camshaft circlip 1.5 inch general use grips the camshaft groove firmly so the camshaft stays in position during service. The 1.4mm thickness balances strength and flexibility, so it can handle repeated removal and refitting. The 35mm internal diameter also suits typical 1.5 inch camshaft end geometries used in modern foundation brake systems. The profile allows quick installation with standard circlip pliers, which helps reduce downtime during brake overhauls.

Compliance and Safety

When you replace a camshaft circlip, confirm that the 35mm internal diameter seats cleanly in the camshaft groove and does not distort excessively. Also check that the circlip shoulders sit fully in the groove so they cannot spring out under brake torque. After installation, verify that brake actuation remains smooth and that no contact occurs between the circlip and adjacent components.

Trailer Applications

This camshaft circlip 1.5 inch general use suits heavy trailer and semi-trailer brake camshafts where a 1.5 inch camshaft end and 35mm internal clip diameter are specified. Typically, you will encounter it on air-braked axles used in linehaul, tipper, and regional freight work. It also suits both scheduled brake relines and corrective repairs when you replace worn or damaged camshaft hardware. Keeping a spare camshaft circlip 1.5 inch general use on hand can help avoid delays during inspections.
