Description
Overview:
These Split Pins are sturdy mechanical fasteners used to lock components in place on machinery and equipment. Made from zinc‐plated steel for improved corrosion resistance, each pin measures 7/32 in (5.56 mm) in diameter and 3 in (76.2 mm) in length. The standard loop‐head design slides through a drilled hole in a bolt, clevis pin, or shaft and is then bent back to prevent loosening, helping to secure castellated nuts and critical linkages. Supplied in a pack of 100, they are suitable for regular maintenance on construction kit, trailers, lawn and garden machinery, agricultural implements, generators, pumps, and more. Simple to fit with pliers, they provide a dependable, low‐cost locking method for both workshop and site use.
