Value Collection 536049PS Precision Dowel Pin 4x6mm Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 536049PS is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The pin measures 4 mm in diameter and 6 mm in overall length, with rounded ends for clean engagement during installation. It conforms to DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards, making it suitable for applications requiring tight tolerances and reliable positioning. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians use this type of pin to align fixtures, dies, molds, and machine components where repeatable precision is critical. The alloy steel construction and Grade 8 material rating provide high shear strength and resistance to deformation under load.

This pin is intended for use in precision mechanical assemblies where accurate part-to-part alignment is required. Typical applications include jig and fixture fabrication, die sets, machine tool components, and industrial assembly fixtures. The DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards define strict dimensional tolerances, making this pin a direct fit in bores machined to those specifications. It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, which is consistent with standard usage in production and maintenance environments where these pins are consumed in volume.

Key Features

• Conforms to DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards for tight dimensional tolerances
• Grade 8 alloy steel provides high shear strength suitable for precision load-bearing alignment
• Rounded ends facilitate installation into close-tolerance bores without damage to the bore or pin
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy without coating buildup
• Minimum order quantity of 100 pieces suits production and maintenance stockroom use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision locating pin for use in bores machined to DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 tolerances, typically in jigs, fixtures, dies, molds, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a 4 mm nominal diameter dowel pin.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a press or arbor press to seat the pin in a close-tolerance drilled and reamed bore. Always de-burr and clean the bore before pressing to avoid galling or pin damage. Do not hammer pins directly without a suitable driver to avoid deforming the rounded ends or misaligning the pin. Ensure the mating assembly is properly fixtured and supported during pressing to prevent distortion.
