Bow-Tie
Locking Cotter Patent Nos. 6,135,693 & D 431,181
The new Bow-Tie Locking Cotter pin works like a Hairpin Cotter, but locks itself on! Push or pull cotter leg into hole, Bow-Tie snaps into a zero-tension locked position. It is easily released by lifting loop and sliding off, but reduces the risk of being accidentally knocked or vibrated off, as with Hairpin Cotters. Made from MB Spring Wire with an attractive zinc plated finish. Use in any hole location to ensure secure fastening.
To install, push or pull Bow-Tie into hole.
Bow-Tie snaps into a zero-tension locked position!
You can even flip the Bow-Tie over the end-it stays locked!
