Value Collection 40100 Pull Out Dowel Pin 3/8x2 in Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 40100 is a standard pull out dowel pin designed for precision alignment and assembly applications in industrial, mechanical, and structural settings. Manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel with a bright uncoated finish, this pin measures 3/8 inch in diameter and 2 inches in overall length. It meets ASME B18.8.2 dimensional standards and delivers a single shear strength of 16,550 pounds and a double shear strength of 33,100 pounds. The pin features one beveled end and one rounded end, which aids in insertion and pull-out operations. Installation and removal are typically performed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians in production or field service environments.

This pull out dowel pin is suited for applications requiring tight-tolerance part alignment, fixture location, and component registration. The Grade 8 alloy steel construction handles high-load and high-cycle conditions common in manufacturing equipment, tooling fixtures, and heavy machinery assemblies. The ASME B18.8.2 compliance ensures dimensional interchangeability across OEM and aftermarket components that call out this standard. Sold in a package quantity of 25 with a minimum order quantity of 1, it is a practical stocking item for maintenance cribs and production floors alike.

Installation Notes

Pull out dowel pins are typically installed and removed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a pin punch, slide hammer, or threaded pull-out tool matched to the pin end. Ensure the mating hole is reamed to proper tolerance before installation to maintain dimensional fit. Disengage all power and relieve any mechanical load on the assembly before driving or extracting pins. Follow applicable facility safety and equipment lockout procedures during service.
