Value Collection MP38246 Hammerlock Cotter Pin 3/16 X 1 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP38246 is a hammerlock cotter pin designed for mechanical fastening applications where a compact, reliable locking pin is required. Measuring 3/16 inch in diameter and 1 inch in usable length, this pin is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. Hammerlock cotter pins are driven into place and deform to lock, making them suited for low-reuse applications where a positive mechanical lock is needed. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and general trade professionals typically install these in light mechanical assemblies.

This cotter pin is used across a wide range of mechanical, industrial, and light equipment applications. Common install scenarios include securing clevis pins, shaft assemblies, linkage rods, and similar fastener components in equipment maintenance and repair. The small diameter and 1-inch length make this pin appropriate for light-duty connections in compact assemblies. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 25 units, making it practical for stocking in a parts bin or service van for recurring maintenance work.

Key Features

• Hammerlock style — drives in and deforms for a positive mechanical lock without tools for removal prep
• 3/16 inch diameter suits compact pin bores in light mechanical assemblies
• 1 inch usable length accommodates standard clevis and linkage pin applications
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for light-duty fastening
• Zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance in dry or mildly humid environments
• Minimum order quantity of 25 units supports bulk stocking for service and maintenance operations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stocking hammerlock cotter pin for light mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/16 inch diameter by 1 inch length pin.

Installation Notes

Hammerlock cotter pins are installed by driving the pin through a prepared hole until the locking deformation engages. Ensure the receiving bore diameter matches the 3/16 inch pin diameter before installation. These pins are generally considered single-use fasteners and should be replaced rather than reused after removal. Depressurize or de-energize any associated mechanical or pneumatic assembly before servicing the connected components.
