Value Collection C207-CP1251000 Cotter Pin 1/8x1 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C207-CP1251000 is an extended prong cotter pin designed to secure fasteners, clevis pins, and shaft-mounted components in mechanical assemblies. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this pin measures 0.125 inches in diameter and 1 inch in usable length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back easily after installation, locking the pin firmly in place. This fastener is compliant with ASME B18.8.1 standards and meets RoHS requirements. Commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and field service technicians wherever a reliable, low-cost locking fastener is needed.

This cotter pin is suited for light-duty mechanical and industrial applications including linkage assemblies, agricultural equipment, material handling hardware, and general machine maintenance. The zinc plating provides baseline corrosion resistance for indoor and moderate-exposure environments. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, making it appropriate for MRO inventory stocking and production line use.

Key Features

• Extended prong style allows easy leg-spreading after insertion for a secure lock
• Grade 2 steel construction provides reliable strength for standard mechanical fastening
• Zinc-plated finish offers baseline corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.8.1 dimensional standards
• RoHS compliant
• Minimum order quantity of 100 units supports bulk stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension extended prong cotter pin per ASME B18.8.1, suitable for use in clevis assemblies, shaft applications, and mechanical linkages that accept a 0.125-inch diameter cotter pin.

Installation Notes

Installation requires pliers or a cotter pin tool to spread the prongs after the pin is fully seated through the hole. Always ensure the pin hole diameter is matched to the pin before insertion to avoid deformation. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before servicing fasteners in moving assemblies. Replace cotter pins rather than reusing them, as repeated bending fatigues the steel.
