Value Collection 241055PR Precision Dowel Pin 3/32x7/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 241055PR is a standard precision dowel pin manufactured from alloy steel and hardened to 50-58 HRC on the Rockwell C scale. It measures 3/32 inch in diameter and 7/16 inch in overall length, with one beveled end and one rounded end for guided insertion. Diameter tolerance is held to 0.0002 inches, making this pin suitable for close-tolerance alignment and positioning applications in machined assemblies. It meets ASME B18.8.2 dimensional and material standards. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and assembly technicians install these pins in fixtures, jigs, and component housings where repeatable, accurate part alignment is required.

This dowel pin is used in industrial manufacturing, tooling, and mechanical assembly environments. Its compact 3/32-inch diameter makes it appropriate for small machined components, precision fixtures, and light-duty positioning applications. The alloy steel construction combined with the HRC 50-58 hardness range provides resistance to shear and wear in high-cycle applications. It is sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of 100 units minimum. Typical installations involve mating bores in metal or composite components where alignment repeatability is critical across repeated disassembly and reassembly cycles.

Key Features

• Alloy steel construction hardened to 50-58 HRC for wear and shear resistance
• Tight diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for close-fit precision alignment
• One beveled end and one rounded end for easy, guided insertion into mating bores
• Double shear breaking strength rated at 1,800 pounds
• Conforms to ASME B18.8.2 standard for dimensional and material compliance
• Standard pin type suitable for fixture, jig, and component positioning applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision dowel pin for use in machined assemblies, tooling fixtures, and jigs where ASME B18.8.2 standard 3/32-inch diameter dowel pins are specified.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins are typically installed by machinists or mechanical assembly technicians using a press or mallet with a suitable driver to avoid damaging the pin or bore. Verify bore diameter and tolerance in the mating component before installation to ensure proper fit class. Always clean and deburr mating bores prior to insertion. Do not force a pin into an undersized or misaligned bore, as this can damage the precision ground surface and compromise alignment function.
