SAE Clevis Pins
SAE clevis pins are manufactured to meet dimensional standards established by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Like all clevis pins, SAE rated models are similar to bolts, but without threading and with a cross-hole near the end opposite the flanged head. This hole allows for the insertion of a cotter pin, which holds the clevis pin in place after installation.
Jay-Cee Sales & Rivet stocks SAE clevis pins in all standard SAE sizes and diameters to meet your needs. We offer plain steel SAE clevis pins, as well as zinc-plated steel SAE clevis pins for enhanced corrosion resistance. See individual product listings for additional information and specifications.

- Lengths tabulated are intended for use with standard clevises, without spacers.
Where required, it is recommended that other pin lengths be limited, if possible
to nominal length increments of 0.06 in. - Basic "J" dimension (distance from center line of hole to end of pin) is specified
for calculating hole location from underside of head on pins of lengths not tabulated. - Reference dimension provided for convenience in design layout and is not subject
to inspection.
