Value Collection 92239 Extended Prong Cotter Pin 5/32x1.5in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92239 is an extended prong cotter pin designed to secure clevis pins, shaft assemblies, and fastener hardware in mechanical, plumbing, and general industrial applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this pin measures 5/32 inches in diameter and 1-1/2 inches in length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back firmly against the mating component after installation, providing a reliable mechanical lock against vibration-induced loosening. Stainless steel construction delivers corrosion resistance suited for wet or outdoor environments. Installers across HVAC, plumbing, pool equipment, and light industrial trades reach for this pin type when a secure, removable fastening method is needed on pinned linkages and rod assemblies.

This cotter pin is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies where a 5/32-inch pin bore is specified. Typical applications include damper linkages, actuator clevis connections, pump rod assemblies, and valve stem hardware. The 18-8 stainless steel alloy makes it a practical choice in environments with moisture exposure, including pool equipment enclosures, outdoor HVAC units, and irrigation system components. Packaged as a single pin, it is sold with a minimum order quantity of 50 units, making it well suited for shop stock or service van restocking.

Key Features

• Extended prong design locks securely when legs are spread after insertion
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Uncoated finish — no coating to crack, chip, or interfere with bore fit
• 5/32-inch diameter fits standard clevis and pin bores of that size
• 1-1/2-inch length accommodates typical linkage and rod assembly thicknesses

Compatibility

Designed as a standard extended prong cotter pin for use in any mechanical assembly requiring a 5/32-inch diameter cotter pin, including HVAC damper linkages, pump rod connections, and valve hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with standard needle-nose pliers. Insert the pin fully through the bore so the eye seats flush, then spread the prongs firmly in opposite directions against the mating component — do not bend both prongs the same direction. Always de-energize or lock out any mechanical assembly before removing or replacing cotter pins to prevent unexpected movement. Worn or previously bent cotter pins should be discarded and replaced rather than reused.
