Those BIS pins are the only ones I've run across. FYI, the early magazine ads and articles have shown a slightly different tow bar (look at the latch mechanism) as well as different pins. Here you can see the pins with a washer and all. In the article they use the pins on a Mustange with TB28 tabs.

Does anyone know what the markings on the heads stand for? Three hints.
1) I've been an Ironworker for many years
2) I have wrenches with those markings
3They were very big in the steel industry back in the day

Bethlehem Steel if you are gonna let the cat out of the bag. They used rail road rivets and drilled the hole for pins to make them into clevis pins.

The I in the middle is supposed to look like and I beam. Yep, finding some today is a challenge.
