MIDWEST FASTENER CORP 74831 3/16" x 1-1/2" 18-8 Stainless Steel Cotter Pins 10PK hardware

10-Pack Stainless Steel Cotter Pins

This 10-pack supplies 3/16" by 1-1/2" split pins made from 18-8 stainless steel for corrosion-resistant fastening. Each pin inserts through a drilled hole and the tines are bent to lock assemblies in place. The hardware suits automotive, marine and general mechanical repairs where a removable yet secure fastener is required. The pack delivers ten identical pieces for multiple jobs or spares.

Mechanics needing split-pin retainers

Technicians securing clevis pins, castle nuts or drilled shafts will find the diameter and length compatible with common automotive and light-industrial hardware. Builders requiring larger diameters, longer lengths or non-stainless materials should look at other fastener selections because this pack only contains the stated size and alloy. The quantity suits occasional maintenance rather than high-volume production lines.

Consistent hold under vibration

The 18-8 stainless construction resists rust so the pin retains its spring tension during extended exposure to moisture and road salt. Once the tines are spread, the pin resists backing out under cyclic loads without the need for tools or thread-locking compounds. The simple bent-tine design provides a visible, inspectable lock that does not rely on friction alone.
