Value Collection C207-BP203 Hair Pin Cotter 1-5/8 in 50-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C207-BP203 is a hair pin cotter fastener made from MB spring wire with a zinc finish. This cotter style is a looped, clip-type retaining pin that holds clevis pins, shaft pins, and axle pins in place by spring tension. It is used across a wide range of mechanical and industrial assembly applications. At 1-5/8 inches in length, it fits mid-range pin diameters commonly found in linkage assemblies, agricultural equipment, and general fabrication. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for light-duty service environments. This part is packaged in a quantity of 50 units per pack.

Hair pin cotters of this type are used in residential and commercial applications wherever quick-release pin retention is needed. Typical uses include equipment linkages, control rod assemblies, clevis connections, and light structural joints. Maintenance technicians, fabricators, and equipment mechanics install these as standard hardware in both field repair and production assembly settings. The spring wire construction allows for fast installation and removal without tools in most applications.

Key Features

• Hair pin cotter design provides spring-tension retention without a separate tool for removal
• MB spring wire construction delivers reliable clamping force across repeated use cycles
• Zinc finish offers light corrosion resistance for general-purpose service conditions
• 1-5/8 inch length suits mid-range clevis and shaft pin diameters
• Sold in a 50-unit pack, suitable for stocking or bulk repair work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hair pin cotter for use in general mechanical assemblies, equipment linkages, and clevis pin applications requiring a 1-5/8 inch retaining pin.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with light needle-nose pliers. Before replacing or removing a hair pin cotter in a loaded linkage or under-tension assembly, relieve all mechanical load and secure any moving components. Inspect the mating pin for wear or deformation before installing a new cotter. Discard any hair pin that has been straightened or deformed, as spring retention cannot be reliably restored.
