Lynch Pin, 7/16 x 2" Yellow
The Lynch Pin, 7/16 x 2" Yellow is a yellow zinc-plated lynch pin measuring 7/16-inch diameter by 2 inches long, available at Skipper B Trailers in Westwego, Louisiana. Lynch pins are the quick-release retaining pins used throughout trailer hitch assemblies — they secure ball mounts in the receiver, lock jack positions, retain clevis pins in safety chain connections, and hold other removable components in place during towing. The 7/16-inch diameter is one of the most common sizes for trailer hitch and accessory applications, and the bright yellow zinc finish makes the pin visible and easy to locate when you're hitching up in a dark driveway before a pre-dawn launch at Bayou Segnette State Park or unhitching in the parking lot after an evening trip on Lake Pontchartrain.
Louisiana trailer owners who hitch and unhitch at every trip handle lynch pins constantly — and the most common problem is losing them. The pin gets pulled during unhitching, set on the truck bumper, and forgotten. It falls in the grass at a Harvey driveway, rolls under the trailer at a Marrero launch, or drops out of a pocket between Westwego and the West Bank. The yellow zinc finish on this pin serves two purposes — the zinc plating provides corrosion protection against the humidity, road spray, and moisture of Southeast Louisiana's coastal environment, and the bright yellow color makes the pin visible on the ground, on the bumper, and in the toolbox where it might otherwise get lost among other hardware. Whether you're Fishing Fanatic Frank replacing a lost lynch pin before his next trip, Weekend Warrior Will keeping spare pins in the truck for quick hitch-ups, New Boater Nancy and Nick buying their first set of hitch hardware, or a marine repair shop stocking common trailer pins for customer service in Greater New Orleans, this yellow lynch pin is the everyday hitch essential.
At $3.89, this lynch pin is cheap enough to buy several — keep one in the receiver, one in the glove box, and one in the toolbox. The 7/16 x 2-inch size fits the most common trailer hitch and accessory pin holes. Replace any lynch pin that's lost, bent, corroded, or difficult to remove. Perfect for hitch assembly, ball mount retention, jack locking, and general trailer hardware needs throughout Southeast Louisiana.
