Midwest Fasteners Zinc Plated Steel Quick-Release Wire Lock Pin
Midwest Fasteners builds this wire lock pin from zinc plated steel for dependable retention in clevis, hitch and linkage assemblies. The family is available in two sizes, 3/8" x 2-1/2" and 5/16" x 2-3/4", so you can match the pin to the hole diameter and grip length the job requires. As a wire lock style pin, it secures through a hole and locks in place without a separate cotter pin or clip, speeding up installation and removal on trailers, implements and shop equipment. The zinc plated finish resists corrosion in outdoor and jobsite conditions, and each pin is sold individually. This makes the pin a practical choice for maintenance techs who need a secure, reusable alternative to cotter pins on clevis and hitch connections.
