Description
Overview:
The 8mm Lynch Pin with Plastic Coated Cable is a compact, durable securing pin for frequent fastening and release on construction, agricultural, and garden machinery. The steel pin has a corrosion-resistant plated finish for outdoor work, while the attached plastic-coated steel cable keeps the pin tethered to the machine to prevent loss. With an 8 mm (0.31 inch) diameter, it suits components drilled to typical 8-8.5 mm clearances, providing a dependable hold through clevises and brackets. The locking ring secures over the shaft to resist vibration and accidental movement during operation. Ideal for lawn tractors, compact plant, mowers, trailers, and small implements where a quick, secure connection is needed for guards, linkages, and accessory attachments.
