Made from steel with a soft hardness rating, this pin is designed to be driven or pressed into place without requiring hardened tooling. The pin measures 3\/16 inches in diameter with an overall length of 3 inches and a usable pin length of 2.812 inches. The head measures 3\/8 inches in diameter and 3\/16 inches in height. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working on jigs, fixtures, and general fabrication applications commonly install this type of pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis soft core pin is suited for light-duty locating and assembly tasks in both production and maintenance environments. Its headed design allows it to seat flush against a mating surface while the pin body engages a drilled or reamed hole. Typical applications include fixture assembly, component alignment, and mechanical subassembly work where a replaceable or removable locating element is needed. The steel construction provides adequate strength for standard shop and fabrication use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft core construction allows installation without hardened press tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch pin diameter for precision locating in standard drilled or reamed holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch head diameter provides a positive seating surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 inch overall length with 2.812 inch usable pin length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel material offers reliable strength for general fixture and assembly use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard soft core locating pin for use in tooling fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies where a 3\/16 inch diameter headed pin is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft core pins are typically installed by toolmakers or maintenance technicians using a press or mallet. Ensure the receiving hole is clean and sized correctly before driving the pin to avoid deformation. No special certifications are required for installation, but proper personal protective equipment should be worn when pressing or driving pins. Inspect the hole and mating surface for burrs or damage before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soft Core\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.812 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Hardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CP4253-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693671055666,"sku":"CP4253-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/59aac40f452e1c13461d0a4b83d0de7b.jpg?v=1788315829","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-cp4253-g-soft-core-pin-3-16-in-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
