Which of the following is NOT a type of cotter joint? Correct Answer Hub and cotter joint

Explanation:

  • A cotter is a flat wedge-shaped piece of steel.
  • This is used to connect rigidly two rods that transmit motion in the axial direction, without rotation.
  • These joints may be subjected to tensile or compressive forces along the axes of the rods.
  • Examples of cotter joint connections are the connection of piston rod to the crosshead of a steam engine, valve rod, and its stem, etc.
