Value Collection 92216 Extended Prong Cotter Pin Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92216 is an extended prong cotter pin machined from 18-8 stainless steel. It measures 3/32 inches (0.09 inches) in diameter and 3/4 inches in overall length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back cleanly after insertion, securing fastened assemblies against loosening under vibration or dynamic loads. This type of pin is a standard hardware item used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance professionals wherever a reliable, corrosion-resistant locking fastener is required in light-duty through moderate-duty applications.

Extended prong cotter pins in this size range are typically used in clevis and pin assemblies, linkage connections, control arms, and mechanical fastening points found in HVAC equipment, plumbing valve assemblies, electrical enclosure latches, and general industrial hardware. The 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, humid, or mildly chemical environments, making this pin suitable for both indoor mechanical systems and outdoor or exposed installations.

Key Features

• Extended prong design allows legs to be bent securely after insertion for positive retention
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and humid environments
• 3/32 inches diameter fits standard small-bore clevis pins and linkage fasteners
• 3/4 inches length accommodates typical light-duty through moderate-duty fastening assemblies
• Reusable in low-vibration applications where pins are removed for service access

Compatibility

Designed as a standard extended prong cotter pin for use in light-duty mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical hardware assemblies requiring a 3/32-inch diameter locking pin.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools beyond needle-nose pliers to spread and bend the prongs after insertion through the host pin or bolt. Always verify the host pin bore diameter matches 3/32 inches before installation. Remove all load from the assembly and, where applicable, de-energize equipment before servicing linkage or clevis connections. Do not reuse pins that show visible deformation, corrosion pitting, or fatigue cracking.
