A one-way clutch wherein a plurality of sprags disposed in an annular array are positioned within an annular space between concentric inner and outer rings. Each sprag has a groove formed therein substantially midway between the ends thereof, which groove opens outwardly of the sprag in a direction which extends radially relative to the inner and outer rings. A garter spring is fitted within the grooves defined by the plurality of sprags. An annular retainer is also disposed within the annular space for holding and positionally confining the sprags. The annular retainer has axially extending parts which are circularly joined together, whereby the axially extending parts positionally hold the sprags.
