R Type Spring Split Pin

Automotive R-Type spring split pins are simple yet effective fasteners used to secure components such as clevis pins, axles, or shafts in automotive and industrial applications. These pins feature a looped end (the "R" shape) and two straight legs that are designed to be inserted through a hole in a component. The spring tension of the legs ensures that the pin remains securely in place, preventing unintended disassembly.The two legs of the R-type pin are slightly bent outward, creating spring tension that holds the pin securely in place once inserted. This design provides a reliable locking mechanism without the need for additional tools or hardware.The looped end serves as a handle for easy installation and removal. It also prevents the pin from being fully pulled through the hole, ensuring it stays in place during operation.R-type pins can be installed quickly by hand or with minimal tools, making them ideal for applications where speed and simplicity are important.
