Clevis pins for rotating joints

This pack supplies five zinc-plated steel clevis pins sized at three-eighths by two-and-a-half inches. Each pin includes a head, shank and cross-hole for a cotter pin to secure the assembly. They suit automotive, agricultural and general mechanical linkages that require a removable pivot point.

Behaviour under sustained load

The zinc plating resists corrosion during extended outdoor or under-vehicle exposure. The steel shank maintains its diameter under repeated shear cycles, keeping the joint aligned without elongation. A cotter pin locked through the cross-hole prevents the pin from walking out under vibration.

Thermal noise and power considerations

As passive fasteners they generate no heat, draw no power and produce no audible noise. The only thermal effect is normal expansion of the steel with ambient temperature changes. No electrical or cooling provisions are required for installation.

Questions about this item

How much vibration or heat will these 34731 clevis pins generate when used continuously in a linkage?

These are solid zinc-plated steel pins with no moving parts of their own, so they produce no measurable vibration, heat or power draw during all-day operation.

What additional hardware is required to secure the 34731 clevis pins after installation?

A cotter pin must be inserted through the cross-hole at the end of each shank to lock the pin in place once the connected parts are assembled.

Will the 34731 pins fit the same holes and cotter-pin slots as the older clevis pins I already have?

The pins are 3/8" diameter with a 2-1/2" shank length; they will work with existing hardware only if those dimensions and the cross-hole position match your current setup.
