What is the purpose of a 7-degree retainer?

A 7-degree retainer uses a specific angle on the lock groove to hold the valve spring more securely. This design helps prevent valve float, especially in high-RPM or high-stress engine applications, ensuring consistent valve operation.

Why is titanium used for this retainer?

Titanium is chosen for its high strength-to-weight ratio. This means it's very strong but also significantly lighter than steel, which reduces the overall mass of the valvetrain. Lower mass can allow the engine to rev more freely and potentially improve response.

Does this retainer come with valve locks?

This part number is for a single retainer only. Valve locks are typically sold separately and must be compatible with the 7-degree angle and the specific valve stem diameter.

About this part

Product Details

Machined from solid titanium, this Ferrea Double Spring Pro CNC Super 7 Degree Retainer is built for serious engine work. The 7-degree lock angle is a specific design choice that helps ensure the valve spring stays securely seated under high stress, preventing valve float and maintaining consistent valve timing. This retainer is designed to work with Ferrea's Pro CNC Super valve springs, offering a well-matched setup for performance builds.

The CNC machining process means this retainer has tight tolerances, which is crucial for proper valve train function. A precise fit reduces wear on other valve train components and helps maintain the integrity of the seal. Because it's made of titanium, it's also very lightweight, which can help reduce the overall mass of the valvetrain, allowing for higher RPMs and improved engine response.
