It measures 3\/32 inches in diameter and 2-1\/2 inches in length, with extended prongs that spread wider than standard cotter pins for added retention in thicker castings or assemblies with limited access. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for general-use environments. This type of fastener is installed by plumbers, millwrights, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals wherever a positive mechanical lock is required on a through-hole pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtended prong cotter pins like the 40913 are commonly used in linkage rods, actuator arms, clevis assemblies, and pivot points across HVAC damper linkages, plumbing valve actuators, and light mechanical equipment. The extended prong design is suited for applications where a standard cotter pin would seat too deeply or where the prong spread must clear a wider boss or bracket. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, this pin is appropriate for maintenance stock or small production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended prong configuration for positive retention in thicker assemblies or wider boss clearances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in general-use environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for reliable shear resistance under mechanical load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/32-inch diameter sized for standard clevis and linkage pin through-holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-1\/2-inch length accommodates moderate-depth assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum order quantity of 100 units suits maintenance shop stocking needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard maintenance fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 3\/32-inch extended prong cotter pin in steel with zinc plating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCotter pins are a single-use fastener — always replace with a new pin after removal; never reuse a bent or spread pin. Insert the pin through the hole until the eye seats flush, then spread the prongs using needle-nose pliers, bending one prong toward the assembly and one away. Power down or de-energize any actuator or mechanical assembly before servicing linkage hardware. Disposal of removed pins should follow standard shop waste practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extended Prong\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40913\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723994792242,"sku":"40913","price":17.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/355852766d1ca2585b3bd3264e03d47e.jpg?v=1788611248","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-40913-extended-prong-cotter-pin-zinc-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
