Gudgeon Pin/Piston Pin
It is a type retaining fastener in mechanical engineering. For instance a gudgeon pin attaches a piston to a connecting rod in an engine.
A gudgeon is a small freshwater fish. A gudgeon pin is a small rod which connects the piston to the connecting rod in an internal combustion engine (often shortened to "gudgeon").

I believe a gudgeon pin is what the British call a connecting rod pin (or wrist pin or piston pin) in a reciprocating assembly, (piston, connecting rod, crank ) It connects the piston head to the connecting rod.
The gudgeon pin or wrist pin (as it is called in the US), connects the piston to the connecting rod and provides a bearing for the connecting rod to pivot upon as the piston moves.

The main function of the gudgeon pin is to connect the piston to the connecting rod in an internal combustion engine. It allows for the rotational motion of the connecting rod to be converted into the linear motion of the piston. This pin must be strong and durable, as it experiences significant forces during engine operation. Proper lubrication and fit are essential to prevent wear and ensure smooth operation.
