Why the Spindle Circlip is Crucial

The spindle circlip is a vital component of the Garrard main bearing assembly. It securely locks the spindle within the bearing housing, preventing vertical play or accidental slipping that can cause permanent damage to your classic turntable. Replacing a worn, stretched, or missing retaining clip is essential for maintaining strict speed stability and smooth, ultra-quiet platter rotation.
