🔌 Function

Passes through a drilled hole or the castellations of a nut and is splayed open, giving a positive mechanical lock that vibration cannot undo.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Nut found part-way backed off its thread
• Legs of the pin cracked or broken where they were bent
• Pin missing, with fretting or bright wear around the hole
• Pin hole worn oval from a loose fastener working against it

🛠️ Service Notes

• Never reuse a split pin - straightening and re-bending it is what makes the legs snap
• Open both legs fully and check nothing moving can catch on them
