Gibraltar HCP5628-G Hard Core Pin 9/64 in Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR HCP5628-G is a hard core pin used for locating, aligning, or securing workpieces and components in manufacturing, machining, and assembly applications. Constructed from steel with a hard pin hardness rating, this pin measures 9/64 inches in diameter with an overall length of 3 inches and a pin length of 2.875 inches. The head measures 1/4 inch in diameter and 1/8 inch in height, providing a positive stop for accurate, repeatable positioning. Machinists, toolmakers, and assembly technicians working with jigs, fixtures, and precision components reach for this style of pin when consistent part location is critical.

This hard core pin is suited for use in tool and die shops, production machining environments, and general industrial assembly operations. It is appropriate for both light and moderate-duty fixturing tasks where a hardened steel locating pin is required. Its compact overall length makes it well-suited for tight fixture layouts and close-tolerance assemblies where space is limited.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit locating pin for fixtures, jigs, and tooling assemblies requiring a 9/64 inch diameter hard core pin with a 3 inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or toolmakers using standard press-fit or slip-fit procedures depending on the tolerance of the mating hole. Ensure the receiving bore is clean and free of burrs before insertion to avoid damage to the pin or fixture. Always verify pin diameter and length against fixture drawings before installation to confirm correct fit.
