Clevis Pins
The most commonly used clevis pins—just slide a cotter pin into the hole to secure parts. These pins have a flat, low-profile head to fit in tight spaces. They're less likely to get in the way than pins with a loop grip or T-handle but aren’t as easy to grab if you want to remove them frequently. Add your own cotter pin, or choose a clevis pin that includes a reusable hairpin cotter.

Heat-Treated Steel
|
Cotter Pin Not Included |
With additional hardness, these pins are less likely to bend, break, and wear than those that aren't heat treated.
Carbon Steel—Stronger than stainless steel, these pins won't deform from stress and vibration. They perform best in dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.
Galvanized Carbon Steel—These pins combine the strength of steel with the rust resistance of stainless steel. They're often used as an economical alternative to 18-8 stainless steel in wet and outdoor environments, but they won't hold up to salt water and chemicals.
Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel
|
Cotter Pin Not Included |
18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these pins resist rusting. They're strong enough to fasten most components but won't withstand stress and vibration as well as steel.
Tethered Loop-Grip Clevis Pins
A lanyard or chain prevents your pin from getting lost when removed. With a large loop handle that's easy to grip and pull, these clevis pins are often used for towing and other applications where you regularly secure and release components.

Painted Carbon Steel—Stronger than stainless steel, these pins won't deform from stress and vibration. The dark enamel creates a finished look but offers minimal corrosion resistance. They're best for dry environments.
Zinc-Plated Carbon Steel—These pins withstand occasional exposure to moisture. However, since friction from moving parts can wear away the finish, they're not ideal for wet environments. While not nearly as corrosion resistant as stainless steel, they are stronger and won’t deform under stress.
Zinc-Yellow-Chromate-Plated Carbon Steel—With a more durable finish than clear zinc plating, these pins hold up in wet and outdoor environments although not as well as stainless steel. Because the plating resists wear and the steel holds up under stress, they're good for pivoting parts, like rod end linkages.
Cotter Pin Included—The hairpin cotter is quicker to install and remove than a linch pin but not as secure.
Linch Pin Included—Less likely to get knocked or shaken out of place than a hairpin, the linch pin has a ring that snaps down and locks.

High-Strength 17-4 PH Stainless Steel—The strongest stainless steel pins we offer, these are the least likely to deform due to stress and vibration. Similar to 18-8 stainless steel, they're suitable for most wet and outdoor environments. However, they won't hold up to the harsh conditions and chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
Cotter Pin Included—The hairpin cotter is quicker to install and remove than a linch pin but not as secure.
Linch Pin Included—Less likely to get knocked or shaken out of place than a hairpin, the linch pin has a ring that snaps down and locks.

Clevis Pins with Locking Retainer
Secure and release these heavy duty pins with one hand. Swing the welded solid steel retainer closed, and it locks onto the pin until you press the lever to open. Unlike other clevis pins, you don’t have to reach around to insert a cotter pin or worry about it falling out. These are often used for towing since they make it easy to hitch and unhitch your equipment.

Powder-Coated Carbon Steel—A shiny black finish creates a barrier against rust in damp and outdoor environments. While not as corrosion resistant as stainless steel, these pins are stronger and won't deform under stress.
