Overview
This industrial-grade cotter pin is engineered for secure mechanical locking in high-vibration and corrosive environments. Manufactured from austenitic 304 stainless steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability, making it suitable for long-term use in outdoor, marine, and chemical processing applications. The pin is designed to be inserted through a pre-drilled hole in a shaft or axle; its prongs are then bent apart to prevent the attached component, such as a clevis pin or castle nut, from sliding off. This bulk package of 1000 units provides cost-effective inventory for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) and production assembly lines.
Key Features
Constructed from corrosion-resistant Type 304 stainless steel Plain, uncoated finish for maximum material compatibility Split pin design allows for secure splaying after installation Provides reliable retention under sustained vibration and dynamic loads Bulk packaging optimized for high-volume industrial consumption
