Part # 22260 – CLEVIS PIN – 1 OD X 4-3/4

CLEVIS PIN – 1 OD X 4-3/4

Western Part # 22260 is a Clevis Pin, with a 1 inch Outer Diameter (OD) and a 4-3/4 inch usable length. This heavy-duty pin is designed for robust pivotal connections on various Western Snow Plow models where substantial strength and a secure, yet easily removable, attachment point are required.

The 1 inch OD indicates a very strong, large-diameter pin, suitable for areas that experience significant shear forces and stress during snow plowing operations. The 4-3/4 inch usable length (also known as the grip length) specifies the maximum thickness of the components or materials the pin is designed to pass through, ensuring proper engagement in its intended application. Clevis pins are characterized by their solid cylindrical body with a head at one end and a hole at the other, through which a cotter pin or hairpin clip is inserted to secure it in place.

In Western Snow Plow applications, a large clevis pin like Part # 22260 is commonly used in high-stress, high-load areas, such as:

• Main pivot points for the A-frame or lift frame: These connections bear the full weight and force of the plow during lifting, lowering, and plowing.
• Heavy-duty angling cylinder attachments: Where the hydraulic cylinders connect to the plow frame or moldboard to angle the blade.
• Major structural connections: Any point requiring a strong, articulating fastener that can be serviced if needed.

Using this genuine Western Clevis Pin ensures a precise fit, the necessary load-bearing capability, and reliable retention for these critical pivot points, directly contributing to the safe and efficient operation of your snow plow. Always refer to your specific Western Plow’s documentation and parts diagrams to confirm compatibility with Part # 22260 and the intended connection point, and follow proper installation procedures, including the secure placement of the retaining pin.
