Slotted Spring Pins – Sellock Pins

Slotted Spring Pins can also be known as Sellock Pins or Tension Pins.

Slotted Spring Pins are simply a single coil of steel with an open slot, this will enable the pin
to reduce its diameter, so that it can be easily inserted into the appropriate size hole. The
most common form of Spring Pin is the Heavy Duty type, DIN 1481/ISO 8752.

These pins are always listed by the hole size they are fitting in to.

We carry large stocks of these Pins, available for same day dispatch.

Cotter Pins, Split, DIN 94


A Split Cotter Pin is a simple fastening device to prevent parts being released off the end of a shaft. Alternatively, they can be very useful to prevent nuts coming undone off a threaded fastener by simply drilling through nut and bolt. The o/d of the pin is made marginally smaller than the hole size to give easy fit. Once inserted the legs are bent over in opposite directions to complete the fastening.

METRIC E-CLIPS TO DIN 6799

One of our most popular products are our metric E-clips.

E-Clips are a basic form of a Circlip. They have the advantage that they can be
inserted from the side of the shaft rather than inserting from the end. Also, each E-Clip
has flexibility on the shaft size that it will suit.

We offer these parts in carbon steel & stainless steel. You can shop online using the links below.
