Gibraltar HCP5642-G Hard Core Pin 13/64 in 10 in Oal

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR HCP5642-G is a hard core steel pin used for fastening, alignment, and assembly applications across fabrication, maintenance, and construction trades. The pin measures 13/64 inches in diameter with a 3/8-inch head diameter, a 3/16-inch head height, and a 10-inch overall length. Manufactured from steel with a hard pin hardness rating, it delivers reliable holding strength in demanding service conditions. At 0.13 pounds, it is lightweight enough for repeated manual handling without sacrificing structural integrity. This part is sold individually as a single-piece unit.

Hard core pins of this type are commonly used in light fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and job-site assembly work where precise alignment or secure fastening is required. The 13/64-inch diameter and 10-inch length make this pin well suited for medium-duty applications where a standard cotter or clevis pin may not provide adequate grip or depth. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and general tradespeople all regularly stock pins in this size range for quick repairs and assembly tasks.

Key Features

• Hard core pin type with hardened steel construction for durability under load
• 13/64-inch pin diameter for precise fit in corresponding bored or drilled holes
• 10-inch overall length accommodates deeper assemblies and layered material stacks
• 3/8-inch head diameter provides a positive stop and bearing surface during installation
• 3/16-inch head height keeps the pin profile low after seating
• Lightweight at 0.13 pounds for easy single-hand handling and placement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hard core pin for use in fabrication, assembly, and maintenance applications requiring a 13/64-inch diameter steel pin with a 10-inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using standard hand tools. Ensure the receiving hole is clean, deburred, and sized correctly to the 13/64-inch pin diameter before driving. Power down or de-energize any equipment and relieve mechanical tension before inserting or removing pins in live assemblies. Do not exceed the rated load capacity of the pin or use it as a substitute for a rated shear pin in safety-critical applications without verifying engineering specifications.
