Value Collection 551219PR Dowel Pin 3x18mm SS316

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 551219PR is a standard pull out dowel pin manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The pin measures 3 mm in diameter and 18 mm in overall length, featuring a rounded end type per DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 dimensional standards. Grade 316 stainless steel provides strong resistance to corrosion and chloride environments, making it suitable for demanding industrial, marine, and food-processing applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and tooling professionals install these pins to align mating components, fixture plates, and precision assemblies where repeatable positioning is required.

This dowel pin is appropriate for use in precision alignment and locating applications across a wide range of industries, including marine fabrication, food and beverage equipment, pharmaceutical machinery, and general industrial tooling. The pull out style allows for removal with standard extraction tooling without damage to the host material. The rounded end eases insertion into close-tolerance bored holes. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 compliant dowel pin for use in precision alignment and locating applications requiring 3 mm diameter pins in machinery, fixtures, and tooling assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a press or mallet with a proper pin driver. The mating hole should be reamed to the appropriate tolerance class per DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 specifications before installation. Ensure the bore is clean and free of burrs or debris prior to pressing the pin. Use a dedicated pull out tool or slide hammer for removal to avoid damaging the bore or the pin.
