Midwest Fasteners Zinc-Plated Steel Spring Linch Pin Retainer

Midwest Fasteners Zinc-Plated Steel Spring Linch Pin Retainer

The Midwest Fasteners Zinc-Plated Steel Linch Pin is a spring-style retainer used to secure clevis pins, hitch pins, axles, and other removable shafts against vibration and accidental withdrawal. Formed from steel with a zinc plated finish for corrosion resistance, this linch pin drops into the cross-hole of a shaft or pin and springs open to lock in place, giving you a tool-free, quick-release retainer. This family is available in sizes ranging from 1/4" x 1-1/2" up to 7/16" x 2", including 3/16" x 1-9/16", 5/16" x 1-3/4", and 7/16" x 1-9/16", so you can select the option that matches the cross-hole on your equipment. Each size is sold as an individual unit, making it easy to match quantities to the number of connection points on your equipment.

Why Midwest Fasteners?

Midwest Fasteners builds this linch pin from zinc plated steel to consistent size tolerances across the full size range, so each option fits as expected and holds up to repeated use in outdoor and maintenance environments. Choosing the correct size and finish matters when a retainer is the only thing keeping a pin from working loose, and Midwest Fasteners supplies that consistency for professional and maintenance work alike. Because every size in the range shares the same steel construction and zinc plated finish, you can standardize on this linch pin across multiple pieces of equipment without sacrificing corrosion resistance or fit, and quickly swap in a replacement whenever a retainer works loose or goes missing in the field.
