Product Information

Full details

The Sealey 230pc Split Pin Assortment is an essential utility kit designed for mechanics, engineers, and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable fasteners to lock bolts and nuts in place across automotive or machinery projects. These zinc-plated pins offer excellent corrosion resistance for long-term durability; however, users should note that the assortment is best suited for general mechanical maintenance rather than heavy-duty structural load-bearing applications.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these pins reusable?

Split pins are technically designed for one-time use because the metal fatigues during the bending and straightening process.

What is the largest size included?

The set includes 19/64" x 4" (7.5 x 102mm) pins as the largest size.

Is the storage box plastic or metal?

The kit is supplied in a heavy-duty plastic partitioned storage box.

Can these be used in marine environments?

While zinc plating offers corrosion resistance, stainless steel would be preferred for high-salinity marine environments.

What are the exact contents of the set?

The set contains 100 x 3/32"x1-1/2", 70 x 5/32"x2", 25 x 3/16"x2", 15 x 1/4"x3", and 20 x 19/64"x4" pins.

Troubleshooting

Pin is too large for the hole

Select the next size down from the assortment; never force a pin as it may damage the fastener or the hole.

Pin legs break during bending

Ensure you are using standard mild steel pins for the task and avoid over-bending or back-and-forth fatigue if the pin is meant to be permanent.

Pins are disorganized

Use the provided partitioned labels or apply your own stickers to the inner lid for quicker identification.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Wide range of sizes for versatile mechanical tasks
  • Zinc-plated finish provides high rust protection
  • Sturdy partitioned box prevents mixed-up parts
  • Ideal for quick repairs in automotive settings

Cons

  • Limited to standard split pin dimensions
  • Not intended for high-stress structural joints
  • Storage box latches may wear over extensive use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Sealey split pins, store the box in a dry environment to keep the zinc plating in pristine condition. When selecting a pin, ensure the diameter is slightly smaller than the bolt hole to allow for easy installation. Always use a pair of pliers to bend the legs of the split pin firmly against the hardware to ensure a secure fit. For optimal maintenance, wipe the pins with a light machine oil if you are working in environments prone to high levels of humidity or salt exposure.
