Description
Overview:
This Lynch Pin 5/16" (approx. 7.9–8.0 mm) x 45 mm ID is a zinc‑plated steel fastener designed to secure pins, linkages and attachments on JCB plant, including the JCB 8008 micro excavator. The sprung circular ring snaps positively over the pin for a firm hold and quick manual release, helping prevent components working loose under vibration while still allowing fast changeovers. Built for site and farm use, the zinc plating resists rust and weathering to support long service life with minimal upkeep. Key dimensions are 45 mm inner ring diameter, 52 mm outer ring diameter and 3.2 mm ring wire diameter, suited to common JCB applications. This part directly replaces JCB 826/01278 (also cross‑ref. 826/10830), making it a straightforward maintenance swap during routine servicing of excavators, loaders, telehandlers and agricultural machinery such as JCB 2CX and 406.
Key Features:
- Pin size: 5/16" (approx. 7.9–8.0 mm) for common JCB pins
- Ring dimensions: 45 mm ID, 52 mm OD; 3.2 mm wire diameter
- Zinc‑plated steel for strength and corrosion resistance
- Positive locking ring for secure retention and quick release
- Direct replacement for JCB 826/01278; cross‑ref. 826/10830
- Fits typical JCB excavators, loaders and telehandlers including 8008
- Simple hand fitment; no special tools required
- Durable construction for demanding site and agricultural conditions
Typical Applications:
Securing linkage pins, hitch points, drawbar pins, bucket and attachment pivots, stabiliser bars and other movable joints on JCB plant. Ideal where frequent attachment changeovers are required, providing a reliable quick‑release lock that resists vibration and shock loads on construction sites, farms and materials handling operations. Suitable for micro excavators like the JCB 8008 as well as larger loaders and telehandlers where a 5/16" (approx. 8 mm) pin with a 45 mm ID ring is specified.
Also known as:
Linchpin, locking pin, retaining pin, hitch pin with ring, ring lock pin, securing pin, quick‑release ring pin, linch pin (alternative spelling). Often used as a safety locking device on plant and agricultural equipment to retain clevis and hitch pins.
