Value Collection MP92237 Extended Prong Cotter Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP92237 is an extended prong cotter pin designed for secure mechanical fastening in assemblies that require positive retention of pins, shafts, and clevis connections. Measuring 5/32 inches in diameter and 1 inch in usable length, this cotter pin is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. The extended prong design allows legs to be bent back firmly against the fastened component, resisting vibration and accidental disassembly. Its stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for wet or outdoor service environments. Mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals install these pins in a wide range of mechanical and fluid-handling applications.

This extended prong cotter pin is suited for use in general mechanical assemblies, agricultural equipment, HVAC linkage systems, plumbing valve stems, and other applications where a reliable, removable locking fastener is required. The 18-8 stainless steel grade is appropriate for environments where mild corrosion resistance is needed. These pins are sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 25 units, making them practical for shop stock or job-lot procurement.

Key Features

• Extended prong design provides a secure bent-leg lock against the mating component
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy at the pin diameter
• 5/32 inches diameter fits standard clevis pins, axle holes, and shaft bores of matching size
• 1 inch usable length accommodates typical light to medium fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard extended prong cotter pin for general mechanical assemblies requiring a 5/32 inches diameter cotter pin with 1 inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Cotter pins are installed by a mechanic or maintenance technician using needle-nose pliers or a cotter pin tool. Ensure the receiving hole in the shaft or clevis pin is fully clear and that the assembly is depressurized or de-energized before installation. Insert the pin fully through the hole, then bend the prongs apart and back against the component to lock the pin in place. Never reuse a previously bent cotter pin, as metal fatigue can cause premature failure.
