Value Collection IDP416-156-562-F09 Precision Dowel Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION IDP416-156-562-F09 is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 416 stainless steel with a passivated finish. It measures 5/32 inch in diameter and 9/16 inch in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0000 to 0.0002 inches for tight, repeatable alignment. The beveled end aids insertion into close-tolerance bores. Hardness is rated at 36-42 HRC per ASTM A380-88. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians install these pins where precise component alignment is required and corrosion resistance is a priority.

This dowel pin is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, dies, molds, and precision assemblies where accurate part location must be maintained across repeated assembly and disassembly cycles. The Grade 416 stainless steel construction provides moderate corrosion resistance, making it appropriate for light washdown or humid industrial environments. Applications span general manufacturing, tooling, and mechanical assembly across both light industrial and production shop settings.

Key Features

• Grade 416 stainless steel construction with passivated finish for corrosion resistance
• 36-42 HRC hardness rating for wear resistance in high-cycle applications
• Diameter tolerance of 0.0000 to 0.0002 inches for precision locating fits
• Beveled end design for easier insertion into tight-tolerance bores
• Meets ASTM A380-88 fastener standard
• Compact 5/32 x 9/16 inch form factor for space-constrained assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision locating pin for use in standard dowel pin applications requiring a 5/32-inch diameter bore and 9/16-inch engagement depth.

Installation Notes

Precision dowel pins are typically installed by machinists or mechanical technicians using a press or mallet along with appropriate alignment tooling. Bore surfaces should be clean, free of burrs, and dimensionally verified before installation. Do not force-drive pins into undersized bores, as this can damage the pin or bore geometry. Confirm hole depth and surface finish meet the tolerance requirements of the application before final assembly.
