Value Collection KP64650X Taper Pin Size 2/0 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP64650X is a Size 2/0 uncoated steel taper pin manufactured to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 standards. The pin measures 1.5 inches overall length with a small end diameter of 0.1098 inches and a large end diameter of 0.141 inches. Material is Grade C-12L14 steel, a free-machining carbon steel that holds tight dimensional tolerances well. Taper pins are used to secure hubs, collars, and similar components to shafts or to align mating parts in mechanical assemblies. Installation and removal are straightforward with standard pin drivers or arbor presses. This item ships in a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Taper pins in this size range are common in light mechanical and machine-tool applications where a removable, self-locking locating pin is needed. The self-locking taper design seats firmly under load and can be driven out for disassembly without damaging mating components. Size 2/0 fits corresponding reamed taper-pin holes per ANSI/ASME B18.8.2. Typical installers include machinists, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics working on shafts, couplings, and precision fixtures.

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 Size 2/0 taper-pin reamed holes in mechanical assemblies requiring a removable locating or locking pin.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are installed by a machinist or maintenance mechanic using a pin driver, hammer, or arbor press into a properly reamed tapered hole. The mating hole must be reamed to the correct ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 Size 2/0 taper before installation — an undersized or straight-drilled hole will not seat the pin correctly. De-energize and lock out any machinery before installing or removing taper pins in rotating components. Drive pins out from the small end using an appropriate punch to avoid damage to the hole.
