Variables Used
Cross Sectional Area of Spigot - (Measured in Square Meter) - Cross Sectional Area of Spigot is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a spigot is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.
Diameter of Spigot - (Measured in Meter) - The diameter of Spigot is defined as the diameter of the external surface of the spigot or the inner diameter of the socket.
Thickness of Cotter - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Cotter is the measure of how much broad is the cotter in direction perpendicular to axial force.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Diameter of Spigot: 40 Millimeter --> 0.04 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
Thickness of Cotter: 21.478 Millimeter --> 0.021478 Meter (Check conversion ​here)

What is a cotter joint?

A cotter joint, also known as a socket and spigot joint, is a method of temporarily joining two coaxial rods. One rod is fitted with a spigot, which fits inside a socket on one end of the other rod. Slots in the socket and the spigot align so that a cotter can be inserted to lock the two rods together.
