Value Collection 92241 Extended Prong Cotter Pin 5/32x2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92241 is an extended prong cotter pin designed for use in mechanical fastening applications where a standard cotter pin requires additional holding security. Measuring 5/32 inches in diameter and 2 inches in usable length, this pin is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, providing corrosion resistance in wet, outdoor, and industrial environments. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back over a shaft or clevis more securely than a standard prong style. This type of fastener is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and trade professionals working with clevis pins, castle nuts, and similar assemblies.

Extended prong cotter pins in this size range are commonly used in light mechanical assemblies, HVAC linkage connections, plumbing valve stems, and general industrial equipment. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes this pin suitable for environments with exposure to moisture or mild chemicals where carbon steel would corrode. Typical applications include securing clevis pins on actuator linkages, retaining axle pins, and locking castle nuts on threaded shafts in both residential and light commercial mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Extended prong design provides a more secure bend-back grip compared to standard prong cotter pins
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• Uncoated finish — no coating to chip, flake, or contaminate the assembly
• 5/32-inch diameter fits common clevis pins and castle nut applications in this size range
• 2-inch usable length accommodates shaft widths requiring longer pin reach

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 5/32-inch diameter extended prong cotter pin with a 2-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Cotter pins are installed by inserting the pin through the drilled hole in the shaft or clevis pin, then bending the prongs back against the assembly to lock it in place. Always power down or de-energize the associated equipment before servicing linkages or pinned connections. Use needle-nose pliers to bend the prongs cleanly without cracking the pin. Never reuse a cotter pin that has been previously bent — replace with a new pin each time.
