Value Collection A996648 Flat Vent Pull Out Dowel Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A996648 is a flat vent pull out dowel pin manufactured from alloy steel to DIN 7979D standards. This precision locating pin measures 8 mm in diameter and 60 mm in overall length, with one rounded end and one threaded end for pull-out extraction. Rockwell hardness is rated C 57-63, providing the surface durability required for high-tolerance fixture and jig applications. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians install these pins where accurate part alignment and repeatable positioning are required in production tooling, molds, and mechanical assemblies.

Flat vent pull out dowel pins are used in precision machining environments where a vented flat along the pin body allows air and fluid to escape during insertion, preventing hydraulic lock in blind holes. The threaded end enables controlled extraction using a standard puller or threaded rod, making this pin well suited for assemblies that require periodic disassembly or maintenance. Typical applications include injection molds, die sets, jig plates, and fixture components in manufacturing and industrial maintenance settings.

Key Features

• DIN 7979D standard construction for consistent dimensional tolerances
• Alloy steel material with Rockwell C 57-63 hardness for wear resistance
• Flat vent design prevents hydraulic lock in blind-hole installations
• One rounded end and one threaded end for controlled insertion and pull-out extraction
• 8 mm diameter x 60 mm length suits common tooling and fixture applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for precision tooling, jig plates, die sets, and mechanical fixtures requiring DIN 7979D flat vent pull out dowel pins in 8 mm diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of hardened dowel pins is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a hydraulic or mechanical press and appropriate extraction tooling. De-energize and lock out all associated machinery before servicing any tooling or fixture components. Use the threaded end with a compatible puller or drawbolt for controlled extraction to avoid damaging the bore or surrounding material. Verify hole diameter and depth tolerances to the applicable DIN standard before installation.
