Safety Indicator Pin
SAF-Holland

An indicator pin specialized for safety-critical latching assemblies in towing and coupling equipment. The pin provides a tangible engagement cue and acts as a lock status indicator to confirm full seating of the locking mechanism in the hitching interface. Precision machining yields a secure fit with mating components in standard SAF-Holland fittings and fixtures within category 42784. The item supports routine inspection by checks for proper alignment before towing, preventing accidental disengagement and potential detachment during operation. Its function ties directly to the ventilation and locking path in the trailer or semi-cab interfaces, where misalignment can compromise safety or performance. The VMRS 059-001-008 identifies it among component-level safety and signaling devices used in trailer or fifth-wheel couplings. Prop 65 labeling on the packaging reflects compliance and warning guidelines for handling. This indicator pin provides reliability in high-vibration environments, reducing downtime caused by misreads of lock status and ensuring consistent coupling procedures during maintenance and inspections.
