Value Collection 245169PS Dowel Pin 1/4 X 1 in Ss Grade 316

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 245169PS is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It measures 0.25 inches in diameter and 1 inch in overall length, with a beveled end type for guided entry during assembly. The pin is produced to ASME B18.8.2 standards and holds a diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches, making it suited for tight-tolerance alignment and locating applications in industrial and mechanical assemblies. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and tooling professionals install these pins where precise component alignment is required.

This dowel pin is used in fixtures, jigs, molds, and mechanical assemblies where repeatable part location is critical. The Grade 316 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance, making it appropriate for wet environments, food processing equipment, marine applications, and chemical processing setups. The beveled end aids insertion into drilled and reamed holes during assembly. Minimum order quantity is 10 pins per order, with single-unit packaging per item.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• Tight diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for precision alignment applications
• Beveled end type for guided insertion into reamed holes
• Bright, uncoated finish meets ASME B18.8.2 fastener standard
• Compact 0.25-inch diameter by 1-inch length suits space-constrained assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a precision locating pin for use in machined fixtures, jigs, molds, and mechanical assemblies requiring ASME B18.8.2 compliant dowel pins with a 0.25-inch diameter and 1-inch length.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins are typically installed by machinists or mechanical technicians using a press or mallet into drilled and reamed holes sized to the appropriate tolerance class. Ensure the receiving hole is clean, deburred, and dimensionally verified before installation. Do not force the pin into an undersized hole, as this can damage the bore or distort the pin. Removal requires a proper pin punch or extraction tool to avoid bore damage.
