Abstract: The invention relates to a device (18) for bending a split pin (4) for securing the position of a workpiece (2), in particular for securing a castellated nut against rotation. The device has a tool body (22) and a holding component (20) for holding the split pin (4) during a bending procedure. The holding component (20) is mounted so as to be rotatable on the tool body (22). The device (18) has a bending element (26) that is disposed on the tool body (22) such that an end of a split pin (4) that is held on the holding component (20) is capable of being bent back by a relative rotation on the bending element (26), in particular in a manner so as to be flush with the shape of the workpiece (2), between the holding component (20) and the tool body (22).
