Overview
This 304 Stainless Steel Cotter Pin is engineered for high-reliability fastening in demanding industrial and commercial environments. Designed for use in a 5/16-inch nominal hole, it provides a secure, semi-permanent locking mechanism for clevis pins, shafts, axles, and other castellated nuts or drilled bolt applications. Its austenitic stainless steel construction delivers superior corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in wet, humid, or chemically aggressive conditions where ordinary steel pins would fail. Supplied in a bulk package of 1000 pieces, this cotter pin is an economical and durable solution for maintenance, repair, and assembly operations requiring consistent, high-volume fastener supply.
