The pin 21T7034461 serves as a mechanical fastener within the articulation points of heavy machinery. It connects structural components, facilitating relative movement between parts while maintaining the integrity and load-bearing capacity of the assembly. These pins are positioned at critical junctions where the machine experiences significant shear and bending forces during operation.
This component is compatible with the Caterpillar PC2000-8 and Komatsu PC2000-8 excavators. It is used in high-stress areas such as the boom, arm, and bucket linkages, as well as the mounting points for hydraulic cylinders that actuate these sections. The manufacturer for this specific part is Caterpillar.
In heavy machinery, pins act as the pivot axis for moving structural members. By providing a secure connection, they allow the machine to translate hydraulic force into mechanical work. Proper maintenance involves regular inspection for wear or fatigue to ensure that the connection points remain secure during operation.
