Shimano CN-770 Chain Pin

These pins are specifically engineered for Shimano 9-speed chains. While they may physically fit other brands, we strongly recommend using them only with Shimano chains to ensure the specific tolerances and shifting performance remain consistent.

Yes, you will need a standard chain tool to push the pin through the chain links. Once the pin is seated, ensure you snap off the pilot guide portion of the pin using pliers or the chain tool itself to finish the installation cleanly.

No, these are single-use connecting pins. Once a pin has been pressed into a chain, it should not be removed and re-inserted, as the structural integrity of the connection will be compromised.

This bulk pack is designed for home mechanics who maintain multiple bikes or perform frequent drivetrain service. It is a cost-effective way to ensure you always have the correct replacement part on hand without needing to buy individual pins repeatedly.

Yes, the pin should be inserted from the side of the chain that allows the pilot guide to extend out the opposite side. Always follow the specific installation instructions included with your Shimano chain to ensure the pin is seated to the correct depth.
