Gibraltar CP4273-G Soft Core Pin 11/32in Dia 10in Oal Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR CP4273-G is a soft core pin designed for use in workholding, fixturing, and locating applications across manufacturing and machining environments. Constructed from steel with a soft hardness rating, this pin offers enough compliance to allow removal without damaging mating components or the workpiece. It measures 11/32 inches in pin diameter with a 9-3/4 inch pin length and a 10 inch overall length. The head measures 9/16 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch in height. Machinists, tool and die makers, and industrial maintenance technicians typically install and service these pins during fixture setup or assembly operations.

Soft core pins are commonly used in production jigs, fixtures, and assembly tooling where repeatable part location is required. The soft core construction makes this pin well-suited for applications where pins need to be driven or pressed in and out repeatedly without gouging bores or requiring destructive removal. This pin is appropriate for light to medium-duty locating tasks in both job shop and production floor environments.

Key Features

• Soft hardness rating allows repeated installation and removal without damaging mating bores
• 11/32 inch pin diameter for precise locating in standard-sized bores
• 9-3/4 inch pin length with 10 inch overall length including the head
• 9/16 inch head diameter and 1/4 inch head height for positive seating and easy extraction
• Steel construction provides durability for industrial fixturing applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard soft core locating pin for use in industrial jigs, fixtures, and tooling that accept an 11/32 inch pin diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or tool and die technicians using a press or mallet, depending on fit tolerance. Ensure the receiving bore is clean and free of debris before inserting the pin. De-energize or lock out any associated equipment before performing fixture maintenance or pin replacement in accordance with applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures.
