Value Collection 551213PR Dowel Pin 3mm X 14mm SS316

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 551213PR is a standard pull out dowel pin machined from Grade 316 stainless steel and finished with a bright, uncoated surface. At 3 mm in diameter and 14 mm in overall length, this pin provides precise location and alignment of mating components in assemblies and fixtures. The rounded end type eases insertion and reduces the risk of galling during installation. Grade 316 stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance compared to Grade 304, making this pin a common choice in food processing, marine, and chemical-exposure environments. Manufactured to DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 dimensional standards, the pin delivers consistent tolerances for reliable press-fit or push-fit applications.

This dowel pin is suited for light to medium-duty alignment tasks in precision assemblies, jigs, dies, molds, and machine fixtures. The DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 standard specifies tolerance fields that ensure compatibility with standard reamed holes across a wide range of industrial and manufacturing applications. Its compact size makes it appropriate for tight assemblies where space is limited. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians across general manufacturing, food and beverage processing, and marine equipment fabrication regularly specify Grade 316 stainless dowel pins for environments where moisture or chemical exposure is a factor.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for enhanced corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• 3 mm diameter by 14 mm overall length per DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 dimensional standard
• Rounded end type for ease of insertion and reduced galling risk
• Bright uncoated finish maintains close dimensional tolerances straight from the factory
• Consistent tolerances support reliable press-fit and push-fit alignment in precision assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 pull out dowel pin for use in any application requiring a 3 mm diameter reamed hole alignment pin in Grade 316 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a hand or hydraulic press sized for the pin diameter and tolerance class. Always ensure the receiving hole is reamed to the correct tolerance per DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 before pressing the pin. Clean and deburr both the pin and hole before assembly to prevent galling, particularly important with stainless steel components. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces; plan inventory accordingly for production runs.
