SKU CH-8ECJ-7HM5Y

  • Product typePins
  • 20 pins per pack for multiple fastening tasks

  • New hardware ready for automotive or general repair
  • Manufacturer-direct supply ensures consistent quality

Pack Contents

This pack contains twenty zinc-plated steel cotter pins for securing metal components in automotive and general hardware applications. Each pin features a split design with two tines that are bent during installation to create a reliable mechanical lock.

Replaces Worn Pins

Use these pins to replace damaged or missing cotter pins on existing assemblies where the original fasteners have corroded or been lost. The jump is worth it when a secure, low-cost fastener is needed to prevent nuts or clevis pins from backing out under vibration.

Build Fit

The pins install into pre-drilled holes in bolts, clevis pins or shafts and require only pliers to bend the tines into place. They free up the need for specialised locking hardware and work with standard hardware store tools.

Questions about this item

What hole diameter does the 1/8 inch cotter pin fit?

The 1/8 inch diameter pin is designed for holes of matching size, so drill or select a hole that accepts a 1/8 inch shaft.

How do I correctly bend the tines after inserting the pin?

Insert the pin through the hole until the head stops it, then bend both tines outward in opposite directions to lock the assembly.

When should I replace a cotter pin that has been in service?

Replace the pin whenever it is removed, shows corrosion, or the tines no longer hold their bent shape securely.
