Types of Lynch Pins

Large lynch pins are generally used for heavier duty applications, while small lynch pins are usually reserved for lighter tasks.

They can be purchased pre-made from a manufacturer or custom made to specific size requirements. The manufacturing process typically involves forming the pin into shape, adding any necessary locks or wires, then hardening it through heat treatment.
