Value Collection P20261 Standard Clevis Pin 5/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION P20261 is a standard clevis pin used to create removable pivot connections in mechanical linkages, rigging assemblies, and general fastening applications. The pin measures 5/16 inches in diameter with an overall length of 1-7/8 inches and a usable length of 1-47/64 inches. A 9/64-inch cotter pin hole is drilled near the end to accept a cotter pin or hitch pin clip for retention. Constructed from 1010-1018 grade steel with no coating, this clevis pin suits maintenance, fabrication, and repair work where a standard unfinished steel pin is acceptable.

This clevis pin is suited for use in industrial maintenance, light fabrication, agricultural equipment, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a removable pin connection. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and fabricators commonly install these pins in clevis brackets, rod ends, and yoke-style linkages. The uncoated steel construction makes this pin appropriate for dry or controlled indoor environments where corrosion resistance is not a primary requirement.

Key Features

• 5/16-inch pin diameter for standard clevis and yoke fitment
• 1-47/64-inch usable length provides adequate grip range for typical clevis applications
• 9/64-inch cotter pin hole allows secure retention with standard cotter pins or hitch pin clips
• 1010-1018 steel construction delivers reliable strength for general-duty mechanical connections
• Uncoated finish suits controlled indoor environments and standard fabrication use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension clevis pin for use in clevis brackets, rod ends, and yoke-style mechanical linkages requiring a 5/16-inch pin diameter.

Installation Notes

Install clevis pins by hand or with a soft-faced mallet to avoid deforming the pin or distorting the clevis bore. Always insert an appropriately sized cotter pin or hitch pin clip through the 9/64-inch retention hole after installation to prevent the pin from walking out under load or vibration. Inspect the mating clevis bracket bore for wear or elongation before installing a replacement pin. Remove all load from the linkage before pulling or driving out the existing pin.
