Description
Overview:
This assorted box of small split pins is a practical fastening kit for workshops, site vans, and maintenance teams. Each pin is made from zinc-plated steel for strength and improved corrosion resistance in outdoor and damp conditions. Split pins are used to secure components after assembly by passing the pin through a drilled hole in a shaft, clevis, or nut and then splaying the legs to lock it in place. The set covers common small diameters for garden and construction machinery, from mowers and compactors to mixers, chippers and generators. Supplied in an organised storage box, the 1000-piece selection provides reliable retention for moving parts and safety-critical fixings where vibration is present.

Typical Applications:
Securing castellated nuts on axles and linkages, retaining clevis pins on control arms, pedal and brake linkages, mower deck and throttle connections, pivot points on compactors and mixers, chute and guard fixings on chippers, and general anti-vibration retention on machinery where a drilled hole allows a mechanical lock.
Also known as:
Split pins are commonly referred to as cotter pins, split cotter pins, cotters, or safety locking pins for castellated nuts. They may also be called machine split pins or securing pins in workshop and maintenance contexts.
