Value Collection 92237 Extended Prong Cotter Pin 5/32 X 1 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92237 is an extended prong cotter pin used to secure fasteners, clevis pins, and shaft assemblies in mechanical and structural applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this pin offers corrosion resistance suitable for outdoor, marine, and wet-service environments. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back securely after insertion, providing positive retention under vibration or dynamic loading. At 5/32 inches in diameter and 1 inch in usable length, it fits a range of light-duty fastening needs encountered in HVAC equipment, plumbing supports, pool hardware, and general mechanical assemblies.

This cotter pin is appropriate for residential and light commercial maintenance tasks where a reliable, reusable locking fastener is required. Typical applications include securing clevis pins on linkage assemblies, retaining bolts or shafts on fan and motor mounts, and anchoring control rod connections on HVAC damper actuators and pool equipment. Technicians and mechanics across plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and pool service trades use this style of pin as a standard consumable in their service kits.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard extended prong cotter pin for use in any application requiring a 5/32-inch diameter pin with a 1-inch usable length in a drilled-hole retention assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools beyond needle-nose pliers to bend the prongs after insertion. Always de-energize, depressurize, or lock out the equipment before servicing any fastener or linkage assembly in accordance with applicable safety codes. Insert the pin fully through the hole until the head seats flush, then bend the extended prongs outward or back against the fastener face to lock in place. Do not reuse a cotter pin that has been previously bent, as repeated flexing can cause metal fatigue and failure.
