The finished part has one end of the wire extending beyond the other end, with a chiseled point. Used to anchor various assemblies by insertion into a drilled hole of a shaft or pin and spreading the points to hold the assembly in position. When used with castle or slotted nuts, it becomes a safety locking device. *ZB - BLUE ZINC
