Overview
This 304 Stainless Steel Split Pin is a precision-engineered, corrosion-resistant fastener designed for secure locking in mechanical assemblies. It functions as a reliable retaining device, inserted through a cross-drilled hole in a clevis pin, axle, or shaft to prevent components from sliding or separating. Its split pin, or cotter pin, design allows the two tines to be bent apart after installation, creating a positive mechanical lock that withstands vibration and dynamic loads. Supplied in a bulk package of 100 units, it ensures consistent availability for maintenance, repair, and production operations.
Key Features
Constructed from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel for durability in harsh or washdown environments Plain finish provides a clean, non-reflective surface suitable for general industrial use Split pin head design allows for easy manual installation and removal with standard hand tools The bent tines provide a secure, vibration-resistant lock to prevent accidental disassembly Bulk packaging of 100 pieces supports high-volume assembly lines and maintenance inventory
