Value Collection C207-CP1561250 Cotter Pin 5/32 X 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C207-CP1561250 is an extended prong cotter pin used to secure clevis pins, bolts, and shaft assemblies in mechanical and structural applications. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this pin measures 5/32 inches in diameter and 1-1/4 inches in length. The extended prong design allows the prongs to be bent back over a fastener or through a hole after installation, locking the assembly in place. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and general mechanical tradespeople install these pins as standard hardware in a wide range of industrial and commercial settings.

This cotter pin is suited for light-duty to medium-duty fastening tasks where a reliable, removable locking method is required. Common applications include securing clevis pins on linkages, locking castellated or slotted nuts on shafts, and retaining pins in agricultural, HVAC, plumbing support, and general mechanical assemblies. The zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor and sheltered outdoor environments. This item is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Key Features

• Extended prong design allows positive locking after installation by bending prongs outward
• Grade 2 steel construction meets ASME B18.8.1 dimensional standards
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for general-purpose use
• RoHS compliant materials
• Compact size — 5/32 inches diameter by 1-1/4 inches length — fits standard small-bore clevis and slotted hardware

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard hardware component for mechanical assemblies requiring a 5/32-inch diameter extended prong cotter pin conforming to ASME B18.8.1.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by hand or with standard needle-nose pliers. Always relieve load from the fastener assembly before removing or installing a cotter pin. Insert the pin through the hole until the eye seats flush against the fastener, then bend the prongs firmly against the surface to lock. Do not reuse cotter pins that have been previously bent, as repeated flexing reduces retention reliability.
