much less than 5mm I think- I always try to get hold of some "E" clips as they are more secure

the threaded thingys are the best, but if you just need an e-clip it's a 5mm.

My method is drill a small hole where circlip goes and use a split pin,never failed in last 5 years (now i,ve gone and done it ) Trev
