Value Collection Lynch 1/4 Lynch Pin 0.25 in Zinc Steel

Product Description

The Value Collection LYNCH 1/4 is a zinc yellow dichromate plated steel lynch pin designed for securing axles, clevises, and shaft ends across a wide range of mechanical and agricultural applications. The pin measures 0.25 inches in diameter with a usable length of 1-7/16 inches and an overall length of 2-1/8 inches. The retained ring features a wire diameter of 7/64 inches, providing the spring tension needed to hold the pin securely in place under vibration and load. The zinc yellow dichromate finish delivers corrosion resistance suitable for outdoor and light-duty industrial environments. This pin is a staple hardware item installed by mechanics, equipment technicians, and general maintenance personnel.

Lynch pins of this size are commonly used in agricultural equipment, trailers, tow hitches, implement attachments, and general industrial machinery wherever a quick-release, positive-retention fastener is needed on a shaft or clevis pin. The 0.25-inch pin diameter fits standard 0.25-inch diameter holes, making it a widely applicable fastener for both OEM assembly and field repair work. Its compact size suits light-duty mechanical linkages and secondary retention applications.

Key Features

• 0.25 inch pin diameter fits standard quarter-inch shaft holes
• 1-7/16 inch usable length accommodates typical light-duty clevis and axle retention
• Zinc yellow dichromate plating on both pin and ring for corrosion resistance
• 7/64 inch ring wire diameter provides positive spring retention under vibration
• Steel construction for reliable strength in mechanical fastening applications
• Quick-install and quick-release design requires no tools for installation or removal

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-fit replacement or replenishment lynch pin for any application requiring a 0.25 inch diameter lynch pin with a usable length of 1-7/16 inches, including agricultural implements, trailer connections, and general industrial linkages.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools — insert the pin through the aligned hole and allow the retention ring to spring into position against the shaft or housing face. Before servicing any attached equipment, relieve any load or tension on the linked components and ensure the machine is fully de-energized or de-pressurized as applicable. Inspect the ring for deformation or fatigue before reuse, and replace the pin if the ring no longer holds tension. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener retention requirements.
