Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this pin measures 3\/16 inches in diameter and 4 inches in usable length. The extended prong design allows the legs to be bent outward after insertion, locking the pin firmly in place without adhesives or secondary fasteners. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications where corrosion resistance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cotter pin is used across a wide range of trade and industrial applications including HVAC equipment linkages, plumbing valve stems, pump assemblies, and general mechanical systems where a reliable, removable locking fastener is needed. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments exposed to moisture, mild chemicals, or temperature variation. Installers in HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical service will find this pin suited to standard clevis and pin-and-hole configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended prong design allows secure leg-spreading after insertion for positive retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and avoids coating buildup in tight tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/16 inches diameter fits standard clevis pin holes and axle shaft applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 inches usable length accommodates deeper assemblies and thicker material stacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard extended prong cotter pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 3\/16 inches diameter locking pin with 4 inches of usable length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCotter pins are installed by a wide range of trades including HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical service technicians. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before servicing any assembly that contains cotter pins. Insert the pin fully through the hole, then spread the prongs using needle-nose pliers or a cotter pin spreader tool to secure the fastener. Never reuse a previously bent cotter pin, as the metal fatigues at the bend point and may fail in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extended Prong\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUsable Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-8 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31163204\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: P20280\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710770282802,"sku":"P20280","price":916.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/19c67abaeec48e4a8c3f647c10fbe64d.jpg?v=1788470373","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-p20280-extended-prong-cotter-pin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
