Depends where you’re from. A cotter is a pin or wedge passing through a hole to fix parts tightly together. In British usage cotter pin has the same meaning, but in the U.S. it means a split pin.

The company I work for literally patented cotter pins back in 1914. This is a hit h pin clip. We make both of them and sell them world wide.

This is commonly called a "hair". They are OK. Now they make a new type called a "bowtie" I remove bowtie pins with bolt cutters and replace them with this kind of pin. Bowtie pin images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61A4-qnmOrL.__AC_SX300_SY300_QL70_FMwebp_.jpg
