    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.
    Steel
    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.
    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.

    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.

    Tethered Loop-Grip Clevis Pins

    Lock and release components again and again without losing your cotter or linch pin. These clevis pins have a lanyard or chain that keeps your securing pin attached. The loop handle is large enough for multiple fingers, so you can get the leverage you need to easily grip and pull it. They’re often used for towing and other applications that require frequent pin removal.

    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 and Zinc-Yellow-Chromate-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.
    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.
    Plastic-Coated Handle—Prevents your grip from slipping on the handle.

    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.

    Clevis Pins with Wire Retainer

    Since you can quickly install and release the wire retainer, these pins cut down the time it takes to swap out parts. They are typically used to connect drive shafts to equipment such as gearboxes, pumps, and compressors. The retainer pivots to accommodate nearby components. Also known as power take-off (PTO) pins.

    Made for cramped assemblies under constant vibration. These pins come with a ring that snaps into a groove near one end, so they can’t slide out or shake loose. The ring also takes up less space than a cotter pin.
    These pins require retaining ring pliers to insert and remove the included ring.

    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.
