Value Collection C674259 Snap Locking Pin 0.5in Zinc Plated

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C674259 is a standard snap locking pin designed for quick-connect and quick-release fastening applications in mechanical assemblies. Constructed from 1144 grade steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance, this pin measures 0.5 inches in diameter with an overall length of 5.125 inches and a usable length of 3.5 inches. The single-wire spring retainer with a square retainer shape holds the pin securely in position under load and releases quickly without tools. This type of pin is commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and general trade professionals working on equipment assemblies, linkages, and clevis connections.

Snap locking pins are suited for use in agricultural equipment, industrial machinery, material handling systems, and general mechanical assemblies where fast, reliable pinned connections are required. The zinc-plated finish makes this pin appropriate for light-duty outdoor or shop-floor environments where minor moisture exposure is expected. Each package contains 5 pins, and the minimum order quantity is 1 package.

Designed as a standard snap locking pin for use in mechanical assemblies, linkages, and clevis connections requiring a 0.5 inch pin diameter. Verify hole diameter and usable length requirements against your specific application before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal require no special tools — compress the spring retainer to insert or withdraw the pin from the mating bore. Ensure the receiving bore is clean and free of burrs before driving the pin into position. Confirm alignment of the assembly under no-load conditions before applying operational loads. Replace any pin that shows visible deformation, corrosion, or retainer damage.
