Overview
New Life for a Broken Chain Tool in the Park Tool CTP-C
The Park Tool CTP-C is a card of two replacement drive pins for Park Tool chain tools, and it is the part that turns a dead chain tool back into a working one. The pin is the piece that actually pushes the rivet out of the chain, so it carries the whole load and it is the first thing to bend or snap. Pins are hardened alloy tool steel. Swapping one takes a 7 mm or 9/32 inch box end wrench and about a minute.
It fits the CT-1, CT-2, CT-3, CT-3.2, CT-3.3, CT-5, and CT-7. Park Tool's own compatibility list is broader than the one printed on the card, which names only the CT-2, CT-3, CT-5, and CT-7, so go by the list above. We stock the CT-3.3 and the CT-5 at the Lab, so if either of those is the tool on your bench, this is the pin for it. Buying a card of two rather than a single pin is the sensible move, because the second one lives in the tool roll and turns the next failure into a two minute stop.

There's more to Park Tool than this one product. Our Park Tool page has the full Park Tool lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Park Tool page →Which Park Tool chain tools does the CTP-C pin fit?
The Park Tool CTP-C fits the CT-1, CT-2, CT-3, CT-3.2, CT-3.3, CT-5, and CT-7 chain tools. The card itself names a shorter set, but Park Tool's own compatibility list is the broader one above.
How many pins come in a Park Tool CTP-C?
Two. The Park Tool CTP-C is sold as a card of two replacement chain tool pins, so you still have a spare after the first repair.
What tool do I need to replace a Park Tool chain tool pin?
A 7 mm or 9/32 inch box end wrench, or a 12 point socket in the same size. Park Tool publishes a step by step guide to chain tool pin replacement if you have not done one before.
Why do chain tool pins break?
The pin carries the entire load of pushing a rivet out of the chain, which is why it is the part that bends or snaps first. Most of the broken ones we see at the Lab came from the tool not sitting square to the link, so keeping a spare pin is normal rather than a sign the tool is bad.
