Value Collection 40012 Precision Dowel Pin 5x10mm Ss 416 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 40012 is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 416 stainless steel, designed for tight-tolerance alignment and fastening applications in industrial, mechanical, and tooling assemblies. The pin measures 5 mm in diameter and 10 mm in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0040 to 0.0120 mm, making it suitable for applications that demand consistent and repeatable positioning. Hardness is rated at 52-62 HRC, providing strong resistance to wear and deformation under load. One end is beveled and one end is rounded, supporting guided insertion into bored or reamed holes. This SKU is packaged in a quantity of 50 pins.

These precision dowel pins are used in fixture building, mold and die work, machine assembly, and general industrial maintenance where accurate part alignment is critical. Grade 416 stainless steel offers good machinability and corrosion resistance, making these pins appropriate for environments where moisture or mild chemical exposure is a factor. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly install these pins in production and repair settings. The 5 mm diameter and 10 mm length suit compact assemblies and close-clearance applications.

Key Features

• 5 mm diameter with tight tolerance of 0.0040 to 0.0120 mm for precise hole alignment
• 10 mm overall length suits compact and close-clearance assemblies
• Grade 416 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and machinability
• 52-62 HRC hardness rating provides durability under repeated load and wear
• One beveled end and one rounded end for guided insertion without tooling damage
• Sold in a pack of 50 pins to support production and maintenance quantities

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision dowel pin for use in fixture, mold, die, and general mechanical assembly applications requiring a 5 mm nominal diameter pin in standard precision tolerances.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a press or mallet with an appropriate pin driver. Always ensure the receiving hole is reamed or bored to the correct tolerance before driving the pin. De-energize and lock out any machinery before installing or removing dowel pins in live assemblies. Do not exceed the rated hardness application range or use the pin as a substitute for a hardened shear pin in dynamic load applications.
