Clevis Pin
A clevis pin is a cylindrical fastener with a head on one end and a cross-hole on the other, designed to be secured with a cotter pin or retaining clip. Unlike bolts, it isn’t threaded along its length and is mainly used to create a pivot or hinge connection.
These pins are common in agricultural machinery, construction equipment, vehicles, and general machinery, where parts need to rotate or move while staying securely connected. They’re valued for being strong, simple, and easy to install or remove.
