PIN - COTTER (CAT CT1075078)

A worn cotter pin can lead to fastener loosening and component separation during operation. This aftermarket replacement part references CAT as the OE maker and cross-references part number CT1075078. The cotter pin is a split metal fastener inserted through a hole to secure a clevis pin or shaft. Its plain mechanical function is to lock a fastener in place by spreading its prongs after insertion. A common failure consequence is that a missing or broken cotter pin allows the retained part to slide out, causing sudden disassembly. Keeping a cotter pin in sound condition helps maintain secure connections in pinned assemblies. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748. The item ships at approximately 0.032 pounds.
