Standard Clevis Pin for Tire Changer and Balancer Issues
The standard clevis pin isn’t just another small part - it’s the unsung hero that keeps your Coats tire changer or wheel balancer running smooth and safe. If your equipment is misaligning, cycling erratically, or locking up under load, chances are the clevis pin is worn or bent. This 3-inch OEM replacement is made to eliminate slack and restore precise motion between key pivot points.
For techs and shop owners, that means fewer retries, faster cycles, and fewer callbacks from improper mounting or balancing alignment. It’s the kind of fix that saves headaches down the line.
What Makes This Clevis Pin Better?
Unlike generic pins or hardware store replacements, this Coats OEM clevis pin is engineered to exact tolerances - same diameter, length, and material spec as the original. That means no rattling, no side play, and no premature wear. It’s zinc-coated steel for corrosion resistance, so even high-humidity or backshop environments won’t rust it out prematurely.
What Sets It Apart:
- OEM fit eliminates guesswork during installation
- 3-inch length matches factory spec for secure anchoring
- Precision-machined to reduce pivot slop and alignment drift
How It Performs on the Job
Once installed, the pin helps lock your changer arm or balancer linkage into true - no more tool chatter, skipped cycles, or “almost there” alignments. Shops that change tires all day know how even a tiny wobble turns into frustration over time. This pin corrects that issue and brings your equipment back to spec.
Ideal For:
- Busy tire shops that rely on consistent machine behavior
- Techs troubleshooting inconsistent bead seating or clamp pressure
- Replacing missing or visibly worn linkage pins
