Value Collection C207-CP1563000 Cotter Pin 5/32x3 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C207-CP1563000 is an extended prong cotter pin designed for securing fasteners, clevis pins, and shaft assemblies in mechanical and industrial applications. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this pin measures 5/32 inch in diameter and 3 inches in usable length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent outward or looped after installation, locking the pin securely in place and resisting vibration-induced loosening. It meets ASME B18.8.1 dimensional standards and is RoHS compliant. Typically installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and general mechanics, this pin suits both light fabrication and production assembly environments.

This cotter pin is suited for use in agricultural equipment, industrial machinery, automotive assemblies, and general mechanical linkages where a positive locking fastener is required. The zinc plating provides a basic level of corrosion resistance for indoor or lightly exposed service conditions. At 5/32 inch diameter and 3 inches in length, it covers a range of standard clevis and pin-hole configurations common in light to medium-duty equipment. Sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Key Features

• Extended prong style allows secure leg-bend or loop locking after insertion
• Grade 2 steel construction for reliable performance in general mechanical use
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in lightly exposed environments
• Meets ASME B18.8.1 dimensional standards
• RoHS compliant materials
• 5/32 inch diameter and 3 inch usable length suit a wide range of standard pin-hole applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME B18.8.1 extended prong cotter pin suitable for use in clevis assemblies, agricultural linkages, industrial machinery, and general mechanical fastener applications requiring a 5/32 inch diameter pin hole.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require special tooling beyond standard needle-nose pliers to spread or bend the prong legs after insertion. Ensure the receiving pin or clevis hole is clear and properly aligned before inserting the cotter pin. Always replace cotter pins after removal — they are single-use fasteners and should never be reinstalled once bent. Wear appropriate eye protection when bending prong legs under tension.
