Value Collection 67977009-100 Extended Prong Cotter Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 67977009-100 is an extended prong cotter pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. It measures 3/32 inches in diameter and 1 inch in usable length. Extended prong cotter pins are used to secure clevis pins, shaft ends, and fastener assemblies by bending the prongs after insertion to lock components in place. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, marine-adjacent, and outdoor mechanical applications. This pin is handled and installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and trade professionals across a wide range of assembly and repair tasks.

This cotter pin is suited for light-duty fastening applications where a small-diameter, 1-inch extended prong pin is required. Common uses include securing castle nuts on clevis assemblies, linkage pins in HVAC damper and control systems, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a positive locking method. The extended prong design provides additional material for bending, making it easier to achieve a secure lock in applications where standard prong length may be insufficient.

Key Features

• Extended prong design allows positive locking with additional bend clearance
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments
• Uncoated finish — no coating to crack, flake, or interfere with close-tolerance holes
• 3/32-inch diameter fits a wide range of standard pin holes and clevis assemblies
• 1-inch usable length suits thin to medium cross-section fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose extended prong cotter pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/32-inch diameter, 1-inch length pin in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require specialized tools beyond needle-nose pliers for bending the prongs after insertion. De-energize, depressurize, or otherwise make safe any assembly before servicing fasteners. Insert the pin fully through the hole and spread the prongs to lock — do not over-bend, as repeated bending will fatigue the pin. Cotter pins are single-use fasteners and should be replaced with a new pin any time the assembly is disassembled.
