Cotter Pins

A Cotter Pin (also called a Split Pin or Tongue Pin in some regional terminologies) is a metal fastener with a looped head and two tines (legs) that are bent to secure it in place. It is inserted through a pre-drilled hole—typically in a clevis pin, castle nut, or shaft—and the tines are bent outward to prevent loosening or withdrawal.
