Cotter Pins, Extended Prong, 1/8 in. X 1-1/4 in., Grade 18-8 Stainless 10 Pack, Prime-Line, Mfr#: 9085602

Cotter pins insert into holes of certain types of fastener systems to secure them into place. The bulbous end prevents the pin from bing pulled through the hole so it is important to select a pin that has a diameter measurement larger than the hole diameter in the fastener you are working with. Once inserted through the hole, the two prongs at the opposite end can be separated and bent outward to lock the pin. Cotter pins are most frequently used to secure clevis pins or castle nuts. Constructed of solid steel, milled and threaded to work with cotter pin fasteners These nuts come finished in a corrosion resistant, zinc plated finish Designed for use with cotter pin fasteners to provide a secure hold that will not be rattled loose by constant vibration Features standard hex nut shape with internal threads and slotted openings for cotter pin insertion Easy to install with only a few simple tools For further dimensional and specification information, please see the line drawing
