MIDWEST FASTENER CORP 930045 5/16" x 1-1/2" 18-8 Stainless Steel Cotterless Hitch Pin

Stainless Steel Cotterless Hitch Pin

The MIDWEST FASTENER 930045 is a 5/16" x 1-1/2" hitch pin made from 18-8 stainless steel for corrosion resistance. It suits automotive, agricultural and lawn-care users who need a reliable trailer-to-vehicle connection. The cotterless design removes the need for a separate retaining pin during installation. This hardware item ships new directly from the manufacturer.

Cotterless Mechanism Benefit

The integrated locking mechanism secures the pin without a separate cotter pin or clip. This reduces the number of loose components that can be lost in grass, mud or workshop floors. It also speeds up the process of coupling and uncoupling trailers or implements. The stainless construction ensures the moving parts resist seizing from rust over time.

Fit And Load Headroom

The 5/16 inch diameter and 1-1/2 inch usable length fit standard receiver tubes and clevis mounts found on light-duty trailers and equipment. The 18-8 alloy provides adequate shear strength for typical garden, utility and small-boat loads. It is not rated for heavy commercial trailers or recovery loads that exceed light-duty specifications. Buyers needing a larger diameter or a rated working-load limit should verify specifications before purchase.
