Value Collection 245064PR Precision Dowel Pin 3/32 X 3/4 in Ss 316

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 245064PR is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. Measuring 3/32 inches in diameter and 3/4 inches in overall length, this pin holds a tight diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches, making it suitable for close-tolerance alignment and locating applications. Both ends are beveled for easier insertion into drilled or reamed holes. It conforms to ASME B18.8.2 standards. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working in precision assembly environments are the typical end users for this fastener.

This dowel pin is used in precision fixturing, jig and fixture assembly, die sets, and machine component alignment where repeatable, accurate positioning is required. Grade 316 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or food-processing environments where carbon steel pins would be unsuitable. The bright finish indicates the pin is supplied uncoated and dimensionally true to specification without any plating buildup that could affect fit.

Key Features

• Diameter: 3/32 inches with a tolerance of plus or minus 0.0002 inches for close-tolerance fits
• Overall length: 3/4 inches
• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• Beveled ends for guided, damage-free insertion into reamed holes
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating to affect dimensional accuracy
• Conforms to ASME B18.8.2 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME B18.8.2 precision dowel pin for use in any application requiring a 3/32-inch diameter locating or alignment pin in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins require a reamed hole sized to the appropriate interference or slip fit per engineering specification — a drilled-only hole will not provide the accuracy or surface finish needed. Press-fit installations should use an arbor press with controlled force; never drive these pins with a hammer, as this can damage the pin or distort the hole. Wear appropriate eye protection when pressing pins. Verify hole depth and alignment before installation to avoid pin bottoming or cocking in the bore.
