PIN - COTTER (Yale YT030220020)

A cotter pin that has lost its grip can allow a clevis pin to walk out, leading to sudden linkage separation. During a pre-shift walk-around, a loose or missing cotter pin may be the first sign of an impending mechanical failure. This aftermarket replacement part references the Yale catalog number YT030220020. The cotter pin functions as a simple mechanical fastener, inserted through a hole to lock a pin or shaft in place. A broken cotter pin in a pivot joint can cause the connected components to disengage under load, creating a safety hazard. Keeping a cotter pin in sound condition helps maintain the integrity of pinned connections in mechanical assemblies. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
