Simple in concept and easy to use, tolerance rings offer convenient and cost-effective solutions for an impressively wide range of automotive applications.

Tolerance rings are capable of handling direct torque transfer, torque slip, axial retention, controlled collapse and radial loading between the mating components. Providing exactly the right combination of properties needed for a particular application involves deciding on the number of waves on the ring, the optimum wave design, and the best combination of material from which to manufacture the ring.

The design work is, however, undertaken entirely by Rencol; all users need to do is to supply basic information about their application and then, when the rings are supplied, fit them!

Tolerance Rings are radial spring fasteners
that are press fitted between two mating components. This generates a retention force that fixes those components together, whilst also satisfying other functional requirements such as Torque Drive, Overload Protection, NVH Performance and Differential Thermal Expansion.


Fasten annular components
Reduce noise & vibration
Compensating for thermal expansion
Predictable & repeatable slip
Avoid resonance frequencies
Overload protection
