Value Collection 34826 Taper Pin Size 1 Uncoated Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34826 is a Size 1 taper pin machined from C-12L14 steel and supplied in its uncoated finish. Taper pins are cylindrical fasteners with a uniform taper along their length, used to secure hubs, collars, and machine components to shafts or to align mating parts with repeatable precision. This pin measures 1 inch overall length, with a small end diameter of 0.1512 inches and a large end diameter of 0.172 inches. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians install taper pins in light-to-medium duty mechanical assemblies where positive locking and easy disassembly are both required.

This taper pin is suited for use in general industrial, manufacturing, and MRO applications wherever a Size 1 ANSI taper pin is specified. Typical installation scenarios include securing gear hubs to shafts, aligning fixture components, and pinning levers or couplings in rotating machinery. The uncoated steel finish makes it appropriate for indoor or protected environments where corrosion exposure is minimal. This listing is sold in a package quantity of 50 pins per order.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Size 1 ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 taper pin replacement or new installation fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.1512-inch small end diameter and 0.172-inch large end diameter pin.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are typically installed by machinists or millwrights using a tapered reamer to prepare the mating hole, followed by driving the pin with a pin punch and hammer. De-energize and lock out all rotating machinery before servicing any shaft or hub assembly. Do not force an oversized pin into an undersized hole, as this can crack the hub or distort the shaft. Removal is accomplished by driving the pin out from the small end using an appropriately sized punch.
