Value Collection 548459PS Dowel Pin 12x35mm Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 548459PS is a flat vent pull out dowel pin manufactured from alloy steel to DIN 7979D standards. It measures 12 mm in diameter and 35 mm in overall length, with one rounded end and one threaded end for extraction. The pin carries a hardness rating of 57-63 HRC, making it suited for precision locating and alignment applications in tooling, dies, and machined assemblies. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working with jigs, fixtures, or mold tooling are the primary installers of this type of component.

This dowel pin is used wherever accurate, repeatable part location is required in industrial and manufacturing environments. Its flat vent design allows trapped air and lubricant to escape during press-fit installation, reducing hydraulic lock in blind holes. The threaded end facilitates removal with a standard extraction tool without damaging the bore or surrounding material. Typical applications include fixture plates, die sets, mold bases, and precision machined assemblies requiring tight positional tolerances.

Key Features

• Flat vent groove allows air and oil to escape during press-fit installation, preventing hydraulic lock
• One threaded end enables clean extraction without bore damage
• 57-63 HRC hardness provides wear resistance in high-cycle locating applications
• Manufactured to DIN 7979D standard for dimensional consistency
• Alloy steel construction for strength and durability in tooling environments

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7979D-standard flat vent pull out dowel pin for use in tooling, fixture, and precision machined assemblies that require a 12 mm nominal diameter locating pin.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or toolroom technicians using a press or mallet with an appropriate driver. Ensure the receiving bore is clean, properly toleranced, and aligned before pressing the pin into place. The flat vent groove must face the bore wall to allow fluid and air to vent. Always use the threaded extraction feature and a proper puller for removal rather than driving the pin out from the threaded end.
