Clevis Pins are a type of fastener that will allow the rotation or swivel of the connected parts about the axis of the pin linkage.  

A clevis pin, sometimes referred to as a link pin or hinge pin, consists of a head, shank and cross drilled hole. When using a fastening, such as a clevis pin, the hole which is at the opposite end of the pin to the head is inserted through the items to be linked, and then a cotter pin, R clip or similar retaining fastener is inserted through the hole to fix the clevis pin in place. 

Like a set screw, a clevis pin is often used to prevent two other pieces from moving relative to each other, A clevis pin is less adjustable, in that it can hold two parts in exactly one relative position (because holes must be drilled in both parts) A clevis pin is also more secure, as it is less apt to work loose due to vibration., this is why clevis pins are often found in agricultural machinery.

Parameters 

Application

When threaded through the prongs of a tang and secured with a cotter pin, a clevis pin can be used to hitch farm and construction equipment for towing. Designed to absorb lateral stress, clevis pins are flanged at one end, with holes at the other end for receiving cotter pins. Clevis fastener systems allow movement along one axis while restricting it along the other. They're suitable for automotive, aircraft, and marine construction applications.
