Value Collection 536052PR Dowel Pin 5x12mm Alloy Steel Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 536052PR is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel with a bright uncoated finish. It measures 5 mm in diameter and 12 mm in overall length, with rounded ends on both sides. This pin is produced to DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards, which define tight dimensional tolerances for use in precision alignment, jig-and-fixture work, and machine assembly applications. Machinists, toolmakers, and assembly technicians install these pins to locate and align mating components with repeatable accuracy across production runs.

This dowel pin is suited for use in precision metal fabrication, tool and die work, machine tool assemblies, and component alignment fixtures in both production and maintenance environments. The alloy steel construction and Grade 8 designation make it appropriate for moderate-to-high load applications where shear strength and dimensional consistency are critical. These pins are commonly pressed or slip-fit into reamed holes per design specifications. This SKU ships as a single piece, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Meets DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards for precision dimensional tolerances
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high shear strength and durability
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for close-tolerance reamed hole installations
• Rounded end type on both ends for guided insertion into blind or through holes
• 5 mm diameter x 12 mm length for compact alignment applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard precision dowel pin for use in any application calling for a DIN 6325 or ISO 8734 compliant pin with a 5 mm diameter and 12 mm length.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins are typically installed by machinists or tool and die makers using an arbor press or similar controlled-force tool. The receiving bore should be reamed to the appropriate tolerance class specified by the engineering drawing before installation. Avoid driving pins with a hammer, as this can damage the bore or alter the pin geometry. Confirm fit class and interference or clearance requirements with the assembly design before pressing.
