Why You Must Replace This Snap Ring
Snap rings, also known as retaining rings, are made of high-carbon spring steel. They are engineered to maintain specific tension within a confined groove. However, they are inherently single-use components in most internal applications.
Here are the critical reasons why the Polaris snap ring 7670149 needs to be replaced:
- Loss of Tension (Fatigue): Constant exposure to high RPMs, vibration, and gear changes causes the spring steel to lose its original tension over time. A fatigued ring will fail to hold components securely, resulting in play or "walk."
- Deformation from Removal: A ring must be stretched or compressed during removal. This process permanently alters the metal's spring integrity. Never reuse a snap ring—a compromised ring is the leading cause of premature component failure after a rebuild.
- Corrosion/Brittle Fracture: Even minor corrosion or pitting can create weak points in the metal, making the ring prone to shattering or fracturing under sudden load, leading to a catastrophic failure of the component it secures.
- Visual Damage: If the ring appears bent, scratched, or has any nicks along its circumference, it must be replaced to ensure it seats completely and evenly within its groove.

Popular FAQs
Q: Is this part the same as a retaining ring? A: Yes, "snap ring" and "retaining ring" are generally interchangeable terms for this type of internal clip used to secure components axially.
Q: Can I use generic snap rings from an auto parts store? A: It is strongly discouraged. Generic rings lack the precise material quality and tension rating of the OEM part. A cheap ring can fail prematurely under the high stress of a motorcycle transmission, causing expensive damage.
Q: How do I remove and install this snap ring? A: You must use the correct-sized snap ring pliers (internal or external, as required by the application) that fit the ring's eyelets. Using improper tools like screwdrivers or regular pliers can stretch or damage the ring and the components around it.
Q: How often should I replace my snap rings? A: Any snap ring that is removed during a repair or inspection should be replaced immediately with a new OEM part like the Snap Ring Polaris OEM part#7670149 to ensure safety and reliability.
