Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this cotter pin measures 3\/32 inch in diameter and 2 inches in usable length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent back easily after insertion, providing a reliable mechanical lock against loosening under vibration or dynamic load. Tradespeople and maintenance technicians use this type of hardware in bracket assemblies, linkage connections, and panel fastening throughout a wide range of equipment installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cotter pin is suited for light-duty to medium-duty fastening tasks where a removable, low-profile locking solution is required. Typical applications include securing pins in HVAC damper linkages, plumbing support brackets, electrical panel assemblies, and general mechanical equipment. The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for use in indoor and protected outdoor environments. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 50 units per purchase, making it appropriate for shop stock and service van inventory replenishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended prong style allows legs to be bent outward after insertion for a positive mechanical lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides reliable strength for light-duty to medium-duty fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/32 inch diameter fits standard clevis pins and castle nuts sized for this gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 inch usable length accommodates moderate-thickness fastener assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at 0.01 pounds fits easily into parts bins and service kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or stock cotter pin for mechanical fastener assemblies requiring a 3\/32 inch extended prong pin with a 2 inch usable length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires no special tools beyond a pair of needle-nose pliers for bending the prongs after insertion. Always ensure the corresponding clevis pin or castle nut bore diameter matches the 3\/32 inch pin gauge before installation. Compress or align the assembly fully before inserting the cotter pin through the hole, then spread the prongs to lock in place. Do not reuse a cotter pin that has been previously bent or deformed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extended Prong Cotter Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUsable Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MP40912\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720931868978,"sku":"MP40912","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/64d37048a3ad2b51ac674687bab0697f.jpg?v=1788571137","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-mp40912-extended-prong-cotter-pin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
