Variables Used
Load on Cotter Joint - (Measured in Newton) - Load on cotter joint is basically the amount of load/force any part or joint, can bear or is acted upon or exerts.
Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot - (Measured in Meter) - Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot is the distance between the end of slot for cotter to the end of spigot opposite from its collar.
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.
Shear Stress in Spigot - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Stress in Spigot is the amount of stress (cause deformation by slippage along a plane parallel to the imposed stress) generated into the socket due to the shear force acting on it.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot: 23.5 Millimeter --> 0.0235 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
Diameter of Spigot: 40 Millimeter --> 0.04 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
Shear Stress in Spigot: 26 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 26000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
L = 2*a*d2sp --> 2*0.0235*0.04*26000000
Evaluating ... ...
L = 48880

Loads supported by a cotter joint

Cotter joints are used to support axial loads between the two rods, tensile or compressive. Although a cotter joint will resist the rotation of one rod relative to the other, it should not be used to join rotating shafts. This is because the cotter will not be balanced and may work loose under the combination of vibration and centrifugal force.
