Midwest Fasteners Zinc Plated Steel Cotterless Hitch Pin

Midwest Fasteners Zinc Plated Steel Cotterless Hitch Pin

The Midwest Fasteners Cotterless Hitch Pin is a zinc plated steel pin built as a quick-release alternative to a traditional cotter pin for securing hitches, clevises and other pinned connections where fast, tool-free removal is useful. This family is built on a consistent 1/4" diameter and is available in lengths from 1/4" x 1" up to 1/4" x 3", including 1/4" x 1-3/4" and 1/4" x 2" options, so techs can match the exact pin length to the hitch, clevis or implement being serviced. The zinc plated steel construction resists corrosion in outdoor and shop environments, and the cotterless design means no bending or cutting of pin legs is required to lock it in place. Each pin is sold individually, making it a straightforward replacement part for equipment, trailer and implement maintenance.
