Custom Clevis Pins are cylindrical Fasteners designed to connect two components using a clevis and a cotter pin or retaining clip. They are widely used in machinery, automotive, construction, and agricultural equipment for pivot or hinge connections. By providing secure, removable connections, these pins ensure mechanical stability and reliable performance in heavy-duty applications. Professional clevis pin manufacturers offer custom machined Clevis Pins tailored to precise dimensions and specifications.

Custom Clevis Pin Manufacturing Process
Our clevis pin manufacturing process ensures high precision and durability:
Material Selection – Choose stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, or galvanized materials based on strength and corrosion resistance requirements.
Cutting & Turning – Raw bars are cut and CNC-turned to achieve exact diameters and lengths.
Drilling – Holes for cotter pins or retaining clips are precisely drilled.
Threading & Forming (if required) – Custom threads or grooves are added for special applications.
Surface Treatment – Options include galvanization, zinc plating, anodizing, or passivation to improve corrosion resistance.
Quality Inspection – Each precision clevis pin is checked for dimensional accuracy, hardness, and surface finish.
Features & Advantages of Custom Clevis Pins
High Strength & Durability – Suitable for heavy-duty machinery and repeated mechanical stress.
Corrosion Resistance – Stainless steel and plated finishes protect against rust.
Precision Fit – Ensures smooth pivot and hinge operation.
Versatility – Can be used in agricultural equipment, construction machinery, automotive applications, and industrial machines.
Customizable – Diameter, length, hole size, and finish can be tailored to specific requirements.
Removable & Reusable – Easy installation and replacement, reducing maintenance downtime.
Compared with standard suppliers, our custom clevis pins offer superior machining accuracy, consistent tolerance, and better corrosion protection, making them ideal for demanding industrial environments.
Material Selection
Stainless Steel (304, 316) – Excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for outdoor and marine applications.
Carbon Steel – High strength, cost-effective, suitable for heavy-duty machinery.
Alloy Steel – Heat-treated for maximum hardness and wear resistance.
Galvanized or Zinc-Plated Steel – Additional rust protection for industrial and outdoor environments.
