Value Collection 551420PS Dowel Pin 6x10mm Ss Grade 316

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 551420PS is a standard pull out dowel pin used to align and locate mating components in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this pin delivers corrosion resistance suitable for wet, chemical, or food-adjacent environments. It measures 6 mm in diameter and 10 mm in overall length with a rounded end type, conforming to DIN 7 EN ISO 2338. Machinists, tool and die makers, and general maintenance technicians use this pin wherever precise hole-to-hole registration is required and removal access is needed.

This dowel pin is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, molds, machine frames, and structural assemblies where component alignment must be maintained across repeated disassembly cycles. The pull out style allows extraction without blind-bore interference, making it practical for assemblies that require regular service or adjustment. The Grade 316 stainless construction makes it appropriate for marine, pharmaceutical, food processing, and general industrial environments where standard carbon steel would corrode or contaminate.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion and pitting in harsh or wet environments
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains close dimensional tolerances for precision alignment
• Rounded end type eases insertion and reduces chamfering requirements on mating holes
• Pull out design allows removal from blind holes without special extraction tooling
• Conforms to DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 fastener standard for dimensional consistency
• Sold individually; minimum order quantity of 50 pieces applies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style alignment component for mechanical assemblies requiring a 6 mm nominal diameter dowel pin conforming to DIN 7 EN ISO 2338.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a press or mallet with a proper drift. Mating holes should be reamed to the appropriate tolerance class per DIN 7 EN ISO 2338 specifications before installation. Ensure all clamping force on the assembly is relieved before removing or inserting the pin. Do not hammer the pin directly on the head face without a protective drift to avoid damaging the finish or distorting the pin diameter.
