Fastener Type and Use
These zinc-plated steel clevis pins provide a pivot connection that allows rotation between assembled parts. Each pin includes a head, shank and cross-hole for a cotter pin to secure the joint. The eight-piece pack suits maintenance tasks on farm equipment, trailer linkages or general mechanical repairs where a removable pivot is needed.
Included Hardware
The package delivers eight identical pins ready for immediate use with standard cotter pins. No specialised tools or additional components are supplied, so installers must source cotter pins separately to lock each connection. Zinc plating resists corrosion in outdoor or damp environments, extending service life on exposed assemblies.
Installation Notes
Insert the pin through the aligned holes, then drive a cotter pin through the shank hole and spread its legs to prevent withdrawal. Clearance for the cotter pin must exist on the far side of the joint; tight spaces can make this step difficult. Verify the shank diameter matches the mounting holes before assembly to avoid binding or excessive play.

Questions about this item
How often will the cotter pins need replacing on these clevis pins?
Cotter pins are single-use fasteners; replace each one whenever the clevis pin is removed or re-assembled.
What load limit appears first when these zinc-plated steel pins are under continuous shear?
The 5/16" diameter shank sets the shear capacity; sustained loads beyond that rating will deform the pin before the zinc coating wears.
Do the pins generate noticeable heat or noise when left in a vibrating joint all day?
No — they are solid steel pins with no moving parts, so they produce no heat and no audible noise in service.
