Value Collection 548380PS Dowel Pin 10x45mm Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 548380PS is a flat vent pull out dowel pin designed for precision locating and alignment applications in tooling, fixtures, and machined assemblies. The pin measures 10 mm in diameter and 45 mm in overall length, manufactured from alloy steel with a hardness rating of 57-63 HRC. One end is rounded for guided insertion, and the opposite end is threaded to allow controlled extraction from blind holes. The pin conforms to DIN 7979D standards, making it a recognized specification part for industrial and production environments. Licensed machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians typically install and service this type of precision pin.

This dowel pin is suited for use in mold making, die sets, jigs, and precision fixtures where repeatable alignment and positive location are required. The flat vent groove along the pin body allows air and trapped lubricant to escape during press-fit installation, reducing hydraulic lock and the risk of component damage. The threaded pull end enables removal from blind hole applications where a standard press-fit pin would otherwise be inaccessible. This pin is commonly found in production tooling and heavy manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Flat vent groove allows air and fluid escape during press-fit installation, preventing hydraulic lock
• Threaded end permits extraction from blind holes without damaging the bore
• 57-63 HRC alloy steel construction provides high hardness for wear and load resistance
• Conforms to DIN 7979D fastener standard for dimensional consistency
• One rounded end and one threaded end for directional installation

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7979D-standard flat vent pull out dowel pin suitable for use in precision tooling, jig, fixture, and die set applications requiring a 10 mm diameter locating pin with a threaded extraction end.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolmakers or maintenance machinists using a press or mallet with appropriate support fixtures to avoid lateral loading. The bore should be machined to the tolerance specified by DIN 7979D for proper interference fit. Always ensure the flat vent groove is unobstructed before pressing the pin into position. To extract, thread in the appropriate-sized removal tool to the threaded end and pull axially without side loading the bore.
