Speaking of vert. hitch pins...

[Delwin D Fandrich]

My apologies...the company name is Driv-Lok and the pin is their Type G
Grooved Pin.  They are available in various lengths and diameters.

The Groov-Pin Type 67 is the functional equivalent.

If memory serves, we got a better price from Driv-Lok in quantities of a
gazillion each.  On special order both companies will furnish these pins in
various alloys and finishes.

I might add that I also used these in the Walter grand plate.
