Value Collection C207-CP1251250 Cotter Pin Grade 2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C207-CP1251250 is an extended prong cotter pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies where positive locking of clevis pins, castle nuts, and other fasteners is required. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it measures 0.125 inches in diameter and 1.25 inches in length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent securely around the retained component after installation, providing reliable anti-rotation and anti-loosening performance in light- to medium-duty applications. Compliant with ASME B18.8.1 and RoHS standards, this pin suits maintenance, repair, and fabrication work across industrial and mechanical trades.

This cotter pin is suited for general mechanical maintenance and assembly work in industrial, agricultural, automotive, and light manufacturing environments. Typical applications include securing castle nuts on axle ends, retaining clevis pins in linkage assemblies, and locking shaft hardware in place. The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light outdoor use. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it appropriate for stocking in maintenance shops or production lines that require consistent, code-compliant fastener inventory.

Key Features

• Extended prong design for secure leg-bend retention after installation
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate shear strength for light- to medium-duty fastener locking
• Zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.8.1 dimensional and performance standards
• RoHS compliant for use in environmentally regulated assemblies
• 0.125 inches diameter and 1.25 inches length suit a wide range of standard clevis pin and castle nut applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension replacement or stock cotter pin for mechanical assemblies requiring an ASME B18.8.1-compliant extended prong style pin with a 0.125-inch diameter shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers using standard needle-nose pliers. Insert the pin through the aligned hole in the fastener or shaft, then bend the prongs apart firmly against the retained component to lock it in place. Always use a new cotter pin when reassembling; never reuse a previously bent pin. Ensure the mating hardware hole diameter is appropriate for a 0.125-inch pin before installation.
