Value Collection A996601 Precision Dowel Pin 6mm X 16mm 25-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A996601 is a precision dowel pin engineered to tight dimensional tolerances for accurate component alignment and location in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel with a bright finish, this pin measures 6 mm in diameter and 16 mm in overall length with a rounded end profile. It conforms to DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards, making it a reliable choice for applications where positional accuracy and repeatable assembly are critical. Each package contains 25 pins. Machinists, tool and die makers, and mechanical assembly technicians are the primary installers of this fastener type.

Precision dowel pins of this type are used in tooling fixtures, jigs, molds, machine frames, and mechanical subassemblies where two or more components must be accurately aligned during assembly and maintained under load. The DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards define the tolerance class and surface finish requirements that make these pins interchangeable with components designed to metric precision-pin specifications. These pins are suited for both production and maintenance applications in industrial, manufacturing, and machine shop environments.

Key Features

• Conforms to DIN 6325 and ISO 8734 standards for metric precision dowel pins
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high strength and hardness
• Bright finish provides a clean surface suitable for close-tolerance bores
• Rounded end type for ease of insertion into precision-reamed holes
• 6 mm diameter x 16 mm overall length for compact, high-accuracy alignment
• Sold in a package of 25 pins for shop and production use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock precision dowel pin for any mechanical assembly specifying a DIN 6325 or ISO 8734 metric precision pin at 6 mm diameter by 16 mm length.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins require a reamed or precision-bored hole sized to the appropriate interference or transition fit per design specification. Use a press or arbor press to seat the pin — do not strike directly with a hammer, as this can damage the pin surface or distort the bore. Confirm bore depth and diameter before installation to avoid bottoming or misalignment. Installation is typically performed by machinists or mechanical assembly technicians following applicable engineering drawings and shop standards.
