Abstract
A retainer for a tool comprises an annular body, a plurality of protruding bosses, and a slot formed through the body in an axial direction. The annular body defines a central opening adapted to receive a tool therein in the axial direction and includes a first end having a first external diameter, and a second end having a second external diameter. The plurality of protruding bosses extend into the opening from an internal side of the body defining the central opening. In a resting state of the body, the first external diameter and the second external diameter are distinct from one another. The body is elastically deformable into a compressed state wherein the first external diameter and the second external diameter are equal.
