It keeps spring tension stable through the full RPM range, protecting against valve float and the valve-to-piston contact that can follow. It suits riders and shops servicing or rebuilding the top end of a 2011 to 2016 RXT X AS 260.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBuilt For Performance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachined to factory valve stem and spring dimensions for a secure, no-play fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetains spring load evenly at high RPM to help prevent valve float\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened surface resists wear from constant spring compression cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for the stock retainer on intake and exhaust valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as a single unit for targeted valvetrain repair or full head rebuilds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFits These Machines\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003efor Sea-Doo RXT X AS 260 1503 (2011-2016)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eOn-The-Job Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop-end rebuilds on the 1503 engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValve spring replacement after a dropped or bent valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefresh work on high-hour supercharged runabout engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead service alongside valve seals, guides, and springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpecs At A Glance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve Spring Retainer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePosition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntake\/Exhaust\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1503\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efor Sea-Doo RXT X AS 260\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYears\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2011-2016\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch4\u003eGood To Know\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e Can I reuse my old retainers during a rebuild? \u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Retainers wear at the valve stem contact point and should be replaced whenever springs are serviced.
