Measuring 3\/16 inch in diameter and 1.5 inches in length, it features a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments. The extended prong design allows legs to be bent outward after insertion, locking the pin securely in place. This cotter pin is a standard consumable used by machinists, millwrights, plumbers, and general maintenance technicians across industrial and commercial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cotter pin is suited for use in linkage assemblies, valve stems, pump shafts, and similar mechanical connections where a low-cost, reliable locking fastener is required. The zinc plating makes it appropriate for indoor or sheltered outdoor installations where light moisture exposure is expected. It is sold in packages of 25, making it practical for service vans and shop stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended prong style allows secure leg-spread locking after insertion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides adequate shear strength for standard mechanical applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion and oxidation resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch diameter fits standard clevis and shaft holes sized for this pin gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5 inch length accommodates typical fastener stack depths in light mechanical assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 25 for bench stock or field service replenishment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-dimension extended prong cotter pin for use in mechanical linkage, shaft, and fastener assemblies requiring a 3\/16 inch diameter pin of 1.5 inch length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by inserting the pin through the aligned hole in the shaft or clevis pin, then spreading the prongs apart with needle-nose pliers to lock it in position. Always ensure the receiving hole diameter is matched to the pin diameter before installation to prevent a loose fit or insertion difficulty. Remove and replace cotter pins rather than reusing them, as repeated bending compromises the metal. No special tools or trade licensing are required, but follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines when servicing pinned mechanical assemblies.\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 Cotter Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\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: 79529962\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51703845716274,"sku":"79529962","price":19.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ceee4d1253b358e38cc36724e1dd8011.jpg?v=1788418957","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-79529962-extended-prong-cotter-pin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
