When to replace the hitch pin?
The pin for holding the hitch into the receiver is the only real thing holding our trailers to our trucks. Mine is new, but it got me thinking, how often should it be replaced?

So wrought iron, or pig iron ? which is basically just high carbon ore, not actually made into any final product.). And none of which are made into hitch pins.
So you don't understand anything about metallurgy and are just going to throw out terms with "iron" in them hoping something sticks.
In engineering, we often use a worst case scenario (with a factor of safety) when the full information isn't readily available...but I'm sure you know better even if you don't bother reading the full post.
