Shimano Chain Connecting Pin – 3 Pack – 6-7-8 Speed

Chain Connecting Pins are Shimano’s preferred way of joining chains.

To install, once you’ve pressed a pin out, simply slide the chain pin through with the chamferred end first. Then using a chain breaking tool, push the link through until it’s almost flush.

You can then snap the part that is sticking out off with a pair of pliers.

If you run a Shimano chain, then carrying a connecting pin is a great way to avoid a very long walk!
