A cotter joint is one that is used to hold parts that might turn, as in an axle or a drive shaft. For example, on a child's wagon, the axles have a hole in each outside end. This hole is for a cotter pin (it looks similar to a bobby pin for the hair), that helps to keep the wheel on while the wheel is turning.
why what type of material is used?which are the manufacturing companies?what are its standard dimension?Cotter jointThese types of joints are used to connect the end of a rod or bar to a shaft. The end of the bar has a hole in it and it is called a lug. The hole carries a shaft. This shaft is locked in place by a smaller pin that passes through the side of the lug and partly or completely through the shaft itself. This locking pin is named a cotter, which sometimes is also applied to the whole joint.The obvious example is on a bicycle where both pedal bars are separately locked by a cotter pin, on their common driving shaft having the sprocket wheel.Steel is the most common material used for this application. There are no specific manufacturing companies who make only cotter pins, nor are there any dimensional standards by which they are designed.
When the axial loads(Tensile/Compressive) will rise above the strength of specially designed socket , spigot and cotter. The failure may be of anyone component or together.
To easily start it in the hole.
Better in what way? Rivited joints are generally cheaper while welded joints are generally stronger.

Mainly used in pipeline and GRP and FRP installation. It reduces the risk of failure at the joints due to bad overlay connections on the joints. Also it allows for some angular tolerance.

The CV joints on a 1996 Ford Aerostar can be replaced by removing the nuts and bolts on the tires. Next, cotter pins, lower ball joints, and the outer joint will need to be removed. Then a pry bar can be placed between the transmission and the inner joint, which will make it easy to pull out.
