Midwest Fasteners Zinc Plated Steel Spring-Style Hitch Pin Clip
The Midwest Fasteners Zinc Plated Steel Spring-Style Hitch Pin Clip is a steel, zinc-plated pin retainer available across four wire diameter and length combinations: 1/4" x 4-3/8", 3/16" x 3-3/4", 3/16" x 3-1/4" and 3/32" x 2-1/2", so you can match the clip to the hitch pin or clevis pin on hand. This spring-style clip locks into the cross-drilled hole of a hitch pin or clevis pin to keep it from backing out under vibration and load on trailers, towing equipment, implements and general fabrication work. Every size in the lineup shares the same steel construction and zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in outdoor and jobsite exposure.
