Value Collection 241022PR Precision Dowel Pin 1/16x3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 241022PR is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel, designed for accurate alignment and location of mating components in mechanical assemblies. The pin measures 1/16 inch in diameter and 3/4 inch in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for tight, repeatable fitment. A Rockwell hardness of 50-58 HRC makes it suitable for demanding applications where wear resistance and shear strength are critical. This pin is installed by machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and maintenance technicians working on precision fixtures, jigs, molds, and machine components.

This dowel pin is suited for use in industrial and manufacturing environments where accurate part registration is required. The one beveled end and one rounded end configuration simplifies installation into blind or through holes. With a double-shear breaking strength of 800 pounds-force, the 241022PR handles significant lateral loading in structural alignment applications. It conforms to ASME B18.8.2, making it appropriate for projects requiring documented fastener standards compliance.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision alignment pin for use in fixtures, jigs, dies, molds, and mechanical assemblies requiring ASME B18.8.2 compliant 1/16-inch diameter precision dowel pins.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins are typically pressed or driven into reamed holes by machinists or maintenance technicians using an arbor press or appropriate driving tool. Always verify hole diameter and surface finish meet the tolerances required for the pin class before installation. Never hammer directly on the pin face without a proper driver to avoid deforming the end geometry or damaging mating components. De-energize and lock out any equipment before performing alignment or fixture work.
