This guide is for professionals and DIY users needing robust hinge pins for heavy-duty applications. The key benefit is their versatile weld-on or bolt-on design, allowing secure attachment to various commercial vehicles and equipment. A caveat to consider is that these pins are supplied in a self-colour finish, requiring further treatment for corrosion resistance. This pack includes 6 x mild steel gudgeon pins, ideal for tailboards, trucks, trailers, tippers, and skips, offering strength and durability for demanding tasks.

These gudgeon pins are manufactured from mild steel, chosen for its strength and durability in heavy-duty applications.
Yes, the 'self-colour' finish means they are uncoated and ready for customisation. You can prepare the surface and apply your preferred paint after installation for corrosion protection and aesthetics.
The primary advantage is that it allows for direct welding without the need to grind off a coating, simplifying the fabrication process. It also offers a blank canvas for post-fabrication protective treatments.
No, bolts, nuts, and washers are not included. You will need to source appropriate hardware based on your specific application and mounting requirements.
This listing is for a pack of 6 x weld-on gudgeon tailboard hinge pins.
They are ideal for commercial or occasional use on tailboards, trucks, trailers, tippers, balers, skips, and any fabrication requiring a strong hinge point.
The pin dimensions are 50mm in length and 12.5mm in diameter. The base dimensions are 50mm x 25mm.
Ensure the base is fully welded or bolted without obstruction. Verify that the mounting surface is flat and free from damage. Check if the corresponding hinge component is aligned properly.
Ensure the 'self-colour' surface is clean and free from grease or contaminants. Use appropriate welding rods for mild steel. Ensure proper grounding.
The self-colour finish requires protection. Apply a suitable coating such as galvanizing, zinc plating, or a high-quality paint designed for metal applications. Clean any existing rust before applying a new coating.
Clean any debris from the hinge mechanism. Apply a suitable lubricant, such as grease or penetrating oil, to the pin and mating surfaces. Check for any bending or misalignment of the pin or hinge components.
