Value Collection KP66845 Tension Lock Hitch Pin 5pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP66845 is a tension lock hitch pin made from zinc plated steel, sold in a pack of five. It carries a pin diameter of 0.5 inches and an overall length of 5.75 inches, with a usable length of 3.5 inches. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for general industrial and maintenance applications. Tension lock hitch pins use an internal spring mechanism to hold the pin securely in place without a separate cotter pin or clip, making them a common choice for quick-connect and quick-release fastening tasks in mechanical assemblies, farm equipment, trailers, and material handling setups.

This hitch pin is suited for light-to-medium duty fastening applications across industrial maintenance, agricultural equipment, and general fabrication environments. The 0.5-inch pin diameter and 3.5-inch usable length make it compatible with a range of standard clevis and lug connections found on gates, linkage arms, and implement attachments. Technicians and maintenance professionals who need a reusable, tool-free retaining solution will find this pin straightforward to install and remove without secondary hardware. The pack-of-five quantity supports small-fleet or multi-point servicing tasks.

Installation Notes

Tension lock hitch pins are installed and removed by hand without special tools. Before installing, verify that the receiving hole diameter matches the pin diameter and that the usable length is sufficient to pass fully through all mating components. Compress or depress the tension mechanism as needed to seat or release the pin. Inspect the spring mechanism periodically for wear or deformation, and replace the pin if the locking action no longer engages positively.
