| Detail | Technical / Commercial Information |
|---|---|
| Product Overview | OEM Titan retainer clip engineered for use in Admiral, Commander, and PowrCoat series professional spray systems. This spring-steel fastener is used to secure pins, shafts, or rods in position within mechanical assemblies. |
| Material & Construction | Manufactured from spring steel with a corrosion-resistant finish, providing reliable retention force while allowing for installation and removal with appropriate pliers. The clip may be of the "E" type, "C" type, or other configuration depending on the specific application. Its precise dimensions ensure a secure fit in the designated groove or feature. |
| Function | Snaps into a groove on a shaft or pin to provide a positive stop that prevents axial movement. The clip secures components in position while allowing for disassembly when needed, making it ideal for applications where components must be retained but may require periodic service access. |
| Industrial Applications | Professional sprayer repair, air motor rebuilding, mechanical assembly servicing, and preventive maintenance across Admiral, Commander, and PowrCoat systems. |
| Compatible Models | Admiral 850-555/850-557; Commander 742-555/742-557; PowrCoat 730, 745, 940, 960, 975. |
| Accurate Part Number | 742-016 Clip, Retainer. |
| Related Parts Commonly Serviced Together | Shafts, pins, rods, and other components retained by the clip. May be replaced during air motor service or mechanical assembly overhaul. |
| Common Problems Solved | Axial movement of components, misalignment of shafts or rods, loss of spring tension, component dislodging during operation, and mechanical failure caused by a worn, deformed, or missing retainer clip. |
| Use with Spray Systems | Supports Admiral and Commander industrial finishing systems and PowrCoat high-pressure coating systems used in commercial and industrial applications. |
| Service & Installation | When installing a retainer clip, use the correct type of pliers. Ensure the clip fully seats in the retaining groove. Verify that the retained component has no axial play after installation. Inspect the clip for deformation, loss of spring tension, or wear during service. Replace immediately if damaged. |
| OEM & Brand Information | Genuine Titan OEM component designed for correct fitment in compatible spray systems. This retainer clip is subjected to continuous vibration, axial loads, and potential corrosion. Failure modes include loss of spring tension, deformation, cracking, and corrosion. A damaged or missing retainer clip can allow retained components to move axially, causing misalignment, increased wear, and potential equipment failure. Replacement with genuine 742-016 retainer clip ensures proper component retention and maintains the mechanical integrity of Admiral, Commander, and PowrCoat spray systems. |
| Commercial Benefits | Restores proper component retention, prevents axial movement and misalignment, ensures reliable mechanical operation, and extends equipment service life. |
