Gibraltar CP-1124 Conical Pin 0.297 in Hss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR CP-1124 is a conical pin machined from high speed steel with a nitride finish. It is designed for use in precision fixturing, tooling, and workholding applications where accurate part location and repeatable positioning are required. The pin measures 0.297 inches in pin diameter with an overall length of 2.5 inches. The conical head measures 0.5346 inches in head diameter and 0.3742 inches in head height. The nitride finish provides surface hardness and corrosion resistance for demanding shop environments. Machinists, tool and die makers, and fixture builders install this type of pin in jigs, fixtures, and workholding assemblies.

This conical pin is suited for precision machining and manufacturing environments where consistent workpiece registration is critical. Conical pins are commonly pressed or inserted into locating holes in fixture plates, tombstones, and modular tooling components. The tapered head geometry allows the pin to self-center and engage locating features reliably across repeated setups. This part is sold individually and is appropriate for both original tooling builds and maintenance replacement of worn or damaged locating pins.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for precision jigs, fixtures, and workholding tooling assemblies requiring a conical locating pin with a 0.297 inch pin diameter.

Installation Notes

Conical locating pins are typically installed by machinists or tool and die makers using a press fit or light interference fit into a precision-reamed locating hole. Ensure the mating hole diameter and depth are matched to the pin specifications before installation. Do not hammer pins into undersized holes, as this can damage the pin or the fixture plate. Inspect the locating hole for burrs or debris before insertion to maintain positional accuracy.
