Genuine Makita 961018-5 — Stop Ring E‑5 (external E‑ring/JIS JE‑5). A small, hardened external E‑ring designed to retain shafts and collared components in place on Makita saws, routers and lawn tool assemblies; it installs into an external groove and resists axial movement under normal operating loads.
Key details: sized to the E‑5 specification (for a nominal 5.0 mm shaft; typical E‑5 external ring dimensions are around d = 5.0 mm, outer diameter ≈ 11 mm and thickness ≈ 0.6–0.7 mm), manufactured to the same JE/E‑ring profile Makita use on multiple tool models. Use this part where the original E‑ring has worn, sprung open, or come off its groove.
