Value Collection P20193 Hammerlock Cotter Pin 1/4 X 2.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION P20193 is a hammerlock cotter pin designed for securing clevis pins, clevises, and other fastener assemblies in mechanical and structural applications. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this cotter pin measures 0.25 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches in length. The hammerlock design allows the looped end to lock over the pin shank after bending, providing a positive retention that resists vibration loosening. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals install these pins in a wide range of industrial, agricultural, and general mechanical assemblies where positive pin retention is required.

This cotter pin is suited for use in clevis linkages, hitch pins, yoke assemblies, and general fastening applications across agricultural equipment, industrial machinery, trailers, and structural rigging. The zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in moderately exposed environments. At 0.25 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches in length, this pin fits fastener bores calling for a standard quarter-inch cotter pin.

Key Features

• Hammerlock design locks over pin shank after installation to resist vibration-induced loosening
• Grade 2 steel construction for reliable mechanical strength in standard load applications
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments
• 0.25 inch diameter and 2.5 inch length suit standard quarter-inch cotter pin bores
• Single-use fastener designed for easy installation and replacement during routine service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cotter pin for clevis pins, hitch pins, and yoke fastener assemblies requiring a standard 0.25 inch diameter hammerlock cotter pin.

Installation Notes

Cotter pins are typically installed by mechanical technicians and maintenance professionals using pliers or a cotter pin tool. Always select a cotter pin diameter that properly fills the bore of the clevis or hitch pin. After insertion, bend the looped hammerlock end firmly over the shank to secure the pin in place. Cotter pins are single-use fasteners and should be replaced rather than reused once removed.
