Value Collection 92232 Extended Prong Cotter Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92232 is an extended prong cotter pin used to secure fasteners, pins, and clevis assemblies in mechanical and structural applications. Measuring 0.125 inches in diameter and 1.75 inches in length, this pin is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with no coating, making it suitable for environments where corrosion resistance is required. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back securely after insertion, providing reliable retention without additional hardware. Plumbers, pipefitters, millwrights, and general maintenance technicians routinely install cotter pins of this type on clevis linkages, clevises, and shaft assemblies.

This cotter pin is suited for light-duty to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in residential and commercial maintenance settings. Common applications include securing clevis pins on valve actuators, pump linkages, HVAC damper mechanisms, and general equipment assemblies where a low-profile positive-retention fastener is needed. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid performance in mildly corrosive or wet environments. This pin is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 50 units, making it appropriate for stocking in shop or service vehicle inventory.

Key Features

• Extended prong design allows legs to fold back securely for reliable pin retention
• 18-8 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance in wet or mildly harsh environments
• Uncoated finish — no risk of coating delamination in service
• 0.125-inch diameter fits standard clevis and linkage pin holes sized for 1/8-inch cotter pins
• 1.75-inch length accommodates thicker clevis assemblies and leaves adequate prong material for bending
• Minimum order quantity of 50 supports efficient stocking for service fleets and shop inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-pattern extended prong cotter pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.125-inch diameter, 1.75-inch length cotter pin retention fastener.

Installation Notes

Cotter pin installation is a general mechanical task performed by maintenance technicians across HVAC, plumbing, and equipment service trades. Always de-energize or lock out the equipment before accessing the pin location. Insert the pin through the aligned hole, then bend the prongs apart firmly against the component face using needle-nose pliers — do not reuse a previously bent cotter pin, as repeated bending weakens the metal. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener retention requirements.
