What is a Safety Retaining Pin?

A safety retaining pin, also known as a spring cotter pin or Fokker pin, is a simple yet highly effective mechanical fastener used to hold two or more parts together. Its spring-loaded loop provides a secure hold that resists loosening due to vibration or movement. This BZP version is designed for applications where reliability, reusability, and ease of installation are essential.

Key Applications and Industries

Safety retaining pins are used across many industries for securely fastening assemblies. In the UK, typical use cases include:

• Construction: Securing formwork, scaffold connections, and structural supports in temporary builds.
• Automotive: Used in tow bars, trailers, and engine assemblies where strong yet removable fastening is required.
• Marine: Ideal for securing deck equipment, rigging, and fittings (A4 stainless only).
