    Cotter Pins

    Lock the ends of clevis pins and shafts to keep components in place. Slide these cotter pins into a hole and then bend the prongs outward with pliers to secure. Also known as split pins, one prong is slightly longer than the other for easy opening once inserted. Repeated bending will weaken the pin, so they should not be reused.

    Hairpin Cotter Pins

    Secure components more quickly than standard cotter pins. One prong is already bent, so just push into a hole for installation in one step. Although hairpins are reusable, they don’t withstand vibration as well as standard and hammer-set cotter pins. Also known as hitch pin clips and R-clips.

    Long-Life Hairpin Cotter Pins

    You can use these pins over and over without reducing their hold, and they're quicker to install than standard cotter pins. One prong is already bent, so just push into a hole to secure parts in one step. Although the coil maintains tension, hairpins don’t withstand vibration as well as standard and hammer-set cotter pins. Also known as hitch pin clips and R-clips.

    Keep a range of sizes on hand to lock the ends of clevis pins and shafts and keep components in place. Slide these cotter pins into a hole and then bend the prongs outward with pliers to secure. Also known as split pins, one prong is slightly longer than the other for easy opening once inserted. Repeated bending will weaken the pin, so they should not be reused.
    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.
