Value Collection P20309 Clevis Pin 5/16 in Stainless

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION P20309 is a standard clevis pin machined from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. It measures 5/16 inches in pin diameter and 3 inches in overall length (OAL), with a usable length of 2-55/64 inches and a 9/64-inch cotter pin hole. Clevis pins serve as the pivot or link fastener in clevis-and-yoke assemblies, connecting linkage arms, rods, and brackets in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial applications. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance without the need for additional surface treatment.

This clevis pin is suited for use in light-duty mechanical linkages, control rod assemblies, actuator arms, and bracket connections found in commercial and residential equipment. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, millwrights, and maintenance professionals when replacing worn pivot hardware in damper linkages, valve actuators, and similar assemblies. The uncoated stainless finish makes it appropriate for environments where mild corrosion resistance is required without added coating thickness.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• 5/16-inch pin diameter fits standard clevis fittings and yoke ends of that bore size
• 3-inch overall length with 2-55/64 inches of usable length for positive engagement in linkage assemblies
• 9/64-inch cotter pin hole accepts standard cotter pins or hitch pins for positive retention
• Uncoated finish eliminates dimensional variability from plating

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement clevis pin for mechanical linkage assemblies requiring a 5/16-inch pin diameter and 3-inch overall length in a stainless steel, uncoated configuration.

Installation Notes

Clevis pins are typically installed by HVAC technicians, maintenance mechanics, or millwrights as part of linkage or actuator service. Ensure the mating clevis or yoke bore is clean and free of debris before insertion. Always secure the pin with an appropriate cotter pin or hitch pin through the 9/64-inch retention hole to prevent backing out during operation. De-energize or lock out any actuator or mechanical system before replacing pivot hardware.
