Value Collection P20197 Hammerlock Cotter Pin 3/8x3 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION P20197 is a hammerlock cotter pin designed for use in mechanical fastening applications where a secure, removable pin connection is required. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this pin measures 3/8 inch in diameter and 3 inches in usable length. The zinc plating provides a basic level of corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial and mechanical service environments. Installers working in HVAC, plumbing support structures, equipment linkages, and general mechanical assemblies will find this pin a standard solution for clevis and yoke-style connections.

This hammerlock cotter pin is suited for light-to-medium duty fastening tasks in residential and commercial mechanical systems. Typical applications include linkage pins on damper assemblies, equipment mounting brackets, pump and valve actuator connections, and similar clevis-pin retention points. Its standard Grade 2 steel construction makes it appropriate for non-critical structural connections where high tensile strength is not a primary requirement.

Key Features

• Grade 2 steel construction for general-purpose mechanical fastening
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance
• 3/8 inch diameter with 3 inch usable length for standard clevis and yoke applications
• Hammerlock design allows secure retention and straightforward removal
• Sold individually; minimum order quantity of 100 units applies

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement hammerlock cotter pin for mechanical linkage, clevis, and yoke connections requiring a 3/8 inch diameter pin of 3 inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanical or maintenance technicians. Always de-energize and lock out any equipment before replacing or servicing cotter pins in powered linkage or actuator assemblies. Use appropriate pliers or a pin punch and hammer for seating the hammerlock style pin; do not over-drive. Verify pin diameter and usable length match the receiving bore and linkage geometry before installation.
