Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or toolmaker should verify bore diameter and fit class before installation. Ensure the fixture plate or die block is fully de-energized and secured before inserting or removing the pin. The slip fit design does not require pressing; forcing the pin with a mallet may indicate a misaligned or undersized bore. Follow applicable shop standards and fixture design specifications for pin retention method.
