Value Collection 241094PR Precision Dowel Pin 1/8x3/4 in Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 241094PR is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel for use in close-tolerance alignment and fastening applications. The pin measures 0.125 inches in diameter and 0.75 inches in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for accurate mating with reamed or precision-drilled holes. One end is beveled and one end is rounded per standard configuration. Hardness is rated at 50-58 HRC, providing strong resistance to wear and shear loading. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics install these pins in fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies where repeatable part location is required.

This dowel pin is suited for precision alignment tasks in manufacturing, tooling, and mechanical maintenance environments. It is commonly pressed or driven into reamed holes in metal components to locate mating parts during assembly or to resist lateral movement under load. The single-pin package quantity supports low-volume tooling builds or replacement of individual worn pins. With a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, this pin is also appropriate for production-level stock in machine shops and maintenance departments.

Key Features

• Grade 8 alloy steel construction with 50-58 HRC hardness for high shear and wear resistance
• Diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for close-fit alignment in precision-reamed holes
• One beveled end and one rounded end for controlled installation and seating
• 3,200 pound double-shear breaking strength for reliable load-bearing performance
• Conforms to ASME B18.8.2 standard for precision dowel pin dimensions and tolerances

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision dowel pin for use in fixtures, jigs, dies, and mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.125-inch nominal diameter pin conforming to ASME B18.8.2.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins are installed by machinists and tool-and-die technicians using an arbor press or pin driver into reamed holes sized to the appropriate interference or slip fit. Ensure the receiving hole is clean, deburred, and within the specified tolerance before driving the pin. Do not strike pins with an unprotected hammer face, as this can damage the pin end or distort the hole. Consult ASME B18.8.2 for recommended hole tolerances and fit class selection.
