socket and spigot cotter joint is an attachment of 2 rods in such a way that it can transfer axial compression or tensile load. for a very simple construction socket can be considered as a hollow pipe having one side solid and the other hollow. while the spigot is a solid rod. the solid spigot is nearly of the size of the internal radii of the socket where it can fit. once they 're fit, consider that a rectangular cavity of tapering constuction through both the parts, i.e., spigot and socket. cotter is a rectangular wedge shaped mild steel block that is inserted in the above mentioned cavity.... the whole assembly is the one u r lookin for...

What type of material used for cotter joint?

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.

Why is it called Hub and spigot drain pipe?

The Hub and Spigot are two types of fitting on either end of a pipe.At one end you have the Hub (Socket) fitting; which is a "female" end of a fitting designed to accept pipe or a SPIGOT connector.At the other end you have the Spigot fitting; which is a "male" end of a fitting designed to be used inside another fittings Socket (or Hub) end.
