Frequently Asked Questions
Does a lynch pin need a cotter pin?
No. The over-center ring attached to the head snaps down hard to hold the pin in place, and the pin installs and removes faster than a clevis pin and cotter.
What is this lynch pin used for?
Securing parts that need to come on and off often on utility and cargo trailers, and on lawn equipment.
Can the pin be tethered so it does not get lost?
Yes. A steel or nylon lanyard can be added as a low-cost tether to keep the pin with the equipment. The lanyard is not included.
Also known as: Linch Pins, 3 point hitch pins, Quick Pins, Click Pins and Snapper Pins.
