8T9044 Internal Snap Ring for Caterpillar Equipment — SKU 8T9044

The 8T9044 is an internal retaining ring used with Caterpillar equipment. It is identified as a standard tempered internal snap ring for retaining components in an internal groove or bore. This is a new aftermarket spare part manufactured by CTP (Costex Tractor Parts).

The part is listed under the Caterpillar equipment application name “Internal Snap Ring.” The available product data identifies the equipment brand but does not specify individual machine models, machine series, or engine applications. Installation should therefore be matched by the required part number and the measured groove or bore dimensions.

Specifications

The free diameter is specified as 5.39 inches, while the hole diameter is specified as 5.12 inches. The ring thickness is 0.109 inches. These dimensions are the stated measurements for identifying the part and checking compatibility with the retaining-ring seat on the Caterpillar equipment.

The part is designated as an internal ring, meaning its intended retaining position is inside a bore or housing rather than around an external shaft. The supplied data identifies its shape as standard tempered and does not provide a separate material grade, surface treatment, installation tool requirement, or individual machine-model fitment list.
