03Technical description

The Gals cotter pin is a split pin in carbon steel used to secure mechanical elements that require simple locking after assembly: castle nuts, pins, light shafts, clevises and articulated joints. It is inserted through the hole in the part and its two legs are bent to prevent the assembly from coming out due to vibration or movement. At TECTUL it is sold by unit and with actual inch sizes from 1/16 X 1/2 to 5/32 X 3. Compared with the stainless steel cotter pin, this reference focuses on general applications where availability and cost are prioritized; for humid environments, frequent washing or corrosive exposure, the stainless option should be reviewed.

Installation recommendations

  • Select a diameter compatible with the hole; do not force an oversized cotter pin.
  • After inserting, bend the legs to lock the pin without cracking the material.
  • Do not use a removed cotter pin as a new part if it has already been bent or fatigued.
  • Prevent the bent tips from interfering with nearby moving parts.
  • For maintenance, check corrosion, breakage or accidental opening.

04Frequently asked questions

What is the price of the Gals cotter pin?

The price is confirmed according to diameter, length and quantity. TECTUL quotes by unit and dispatches throughout Colombia.

What is the difference compared with the stainless steel cotter pin?

The Gals cotter pin is carbon steel for general use. Stainless steel is recommended when there is humidity, washing or higher corrosion requirement.

How is a cotter pin installed?

It is inserted through the hole of the pin or castle nut and then its legs are bent to lock the assembly.

Can it be reused?

It is not ideal. When bent and straightened, it loses mechanical condition; in industrial maintenance, replacement is recommended.

What sizes does TECTUL carry?

This lot includes sizes from 1/16 X 1/2 to 5/32 X 3, according to actual product availability.

Is it also known as a split pin?

Yes. In industrial purchasing it may appear as cotter pin, split cotter, split pin or cotter pin.
