Value Collection B10100 Flat Vent Pull Out Dowel Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B10100 is a flat vent pull out dowel pin manufactured from alloy steel to DIN 7979D standards. It measures 12 mm in diameter and 40 mm in overall length, with one rounded end and one threaded end for positive extraction. The alloy steel construction is through-hardened to a Rockwell C hardness of 57-63, giving the pin strong resistance to wear and shear forces. This type of precision locating pin is used in tooling, fixturing, and machined assemblies where repeatable alignment and reliable removal are required. Installation and removal are performed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working with jigs, dies, and production fixtures.

Flat vent pull out dowel pins in the DIN 7979D specification are commonly used in industrial manufacturing environments. The flat vent along the pin body allows trapped air and lubricant to escape during press-fit installation, preventing hydraulic lock in blind holes. The threaded end accepts a standard extraction tool, making removal straightforward without the need to damage the bore or surrounding material. This pin is suited for applications in mold making, press tooling, and precision machine assembly where tight tolerances and repeated disassembly cycles are expected.

Key Features

• Alloy steel construction hardened to Rockwell C 57-63 for wear and shear resistance
• Flat vent allows air and lubricant relief during press-fit installation in blind holes
• One rounded end for guided insertion; one threaded end for extraction tool engagement
• 12 mm diameter x 40 mm length suits standard tooling and fixture bore sizes
• Sold in a package quantity of 5 pins

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style locating component for use in tooling fixtures, jigs, dies, and precision machined assemblies requiring DIN 7979D flat vent pull out dowel pins with a 12 mm diameter bore fit.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or toolmaker using a press or mallet with an appropriate driver. Ensure the receiving bore is clean, deburred, and dimensioned to the correct DIN 7979D interference fit tolerance before pressing the pin in place. Always use the threaded end with a proper extraction tool for removal — do not drive from the threaded end during installation. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and lock out any powered equipment before servicing fixtures or tooling containing these pins.
