Agri-Fab 47046 Pin, Dowel 1/4-Inch by 3/4

What It Is

The Agri-Fab 47046 is a 1/4-inch by 3/4-inch steel dowel pin used to secure hitch pins, clevis pins, or other linkage components on lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, and tow-behind attachments. It’s commonly found in Agri-Fab spreaders, sprayers, carts, and similar towable equipment.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, measure the hole diameter and required length. This pin is 1/4 inch in diameter and 3/4 inch long—if your application needs a longer or thicker pin, it won’t work. Check if your equipment uses a retaining clip or cotter pin; this dowel pin is plain (no hole for a cotter pin). It’s an OEM replacement for many Agri-Fab attachments but is not universal for other brands. Verify your model number against Agri-Fab’s compatibility list or measure the existing pin.

Key Things to Know

• Material & durability: Made from plain steel, not stainless or coated. It can rust if left exposed to moisture—consider applying light oil or grease.
• Installation is trivial: Just slide it through the aligned holes and secure with a clip or hitch pin if needed. No tools required.
• Common gotcha: This pin is not a cotter pin or a hairpin clip. It’s a solid dowel. If your setup requires a locking feature, you’ll need a separate retainer.
• Aftermarket alternatives: Generic 1/4 x 3/4 steel dowel pins may be cheaper, but Agri-Fab’s are machined to tighter tolerances for a snug fit.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a direct replacement for a lost or worn dowel pin on an Agri-Fab attachment—it’s a simple, affordable fix that fits perfectly. Skip it if you need a longer pin, a cotter-pin style, or a rust-resistant option; in those cases, look for a stainless steel or zinc-plated alternative.
