Value Collection 34836X Taper Pin Size 3 1 in Uncoated Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34836X is a Size 3 taper pin manufactured from C-12L14 steel in an uncoated finish. Taper pins provide a reliable, self-locking method of securing hubs, collars, and machine components to shafts by wedging into a tapered hole to resist rotational and axial movement. This pin measures 1 inch in overall length, with a small end diameter of 0.1982 inches and a large end diameter of 0.219 inches. It conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 standards, making it a dimensionally consistent choice for precision mechanical assemblies in industrial, MRO, and machinery applications.

Size 3 taper pins at this length are commonly used in light-duty to medium-duty shaft-to-hub connections on machine tools, conveyor systems, agricultural equipment, and general industrial machinery. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and millwrights install these pins during assembly and repair operations where a repeatable, removable connection point is required. The C-12L14 free-machining steel grade provides good surface finish and dimensional consistency through the reamed hole. This SKU is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 compliant for standardized dimensional accuracy
• C-12L14 free-machining steel grade for consistent surface finish
• Self-locking taper geometry resists axial and rotational movement under load
• Uncoated finish suitable for general indoor industrial environments
• Diameter tolerance range of -0.0007 inches to +0.0013 inches for precise fitment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 Size 3 taper pin for use in any application requiring a 1-inch OAL taper pin with a small end diameter of 0.1982 inches and a large end diameter of 0.219 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a taper pin reamer sized to match the pin number and a pin driver or press to seat the pin fully. Always ream the hole to the correct taper before driving the pin to ensure proper seating and full contact along the pin length. Power down and lock out all equipment before disassembly or installation. Do not force an oversized pin into an underreamed hole, as this can crack the hub or damage the shaft.
