Value Collection MSC-67600569 Pull Out Dowel Pin 3/16x5/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67600569 is a standard pull out dowel pin machined from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. Dowel pins are precision-ground cylindrical fasteners used to align, locate, or retain components in assemblies. This pin measures 3/16 inch in diameter and 0.625 inches in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for consistent, repeatable fit. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or food-service environments. The pull out style includes a threaded extraction feature that allows controlled removal without damage to the mating hole or surrounding material. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians install these pins in fixture plates, jigs, dies, and mechanical assemblies.

This dowel pin is suited for light-duty precision alignment applications in both industrial and commercial settings. Typical use cases include locating machine components, aligning mold or die halves, positioning fixture plates, and anchoring parts in assemblies where disassembly is required. The pull out design makes it practical in blind-hole applications where a standard solid pin would be difficult or impossible to extract without specialized equipment. These pins are sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of 100.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• Pull out style allows controlled extraction from blind holes without damaging the bore
• Diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for precise, repeatable locating fits
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy without added coating thickness
• Compact 3/16 x 5/8 inch size suits light-duty alignment and locating applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard pull out dowel pin for use in fixture plates, jigs, dies, and general mechanical assemblies requiring precision alignment and controlled disassembly.

Installation Notes

Dowel pins of this type are typically installed by machinists or toolmakers using an arbor press or mallet with a properly sized punch. The mating hole should be reamed to the correct tolerance class before installation to ensure proper fit. Always verify hole depth and diameter before pressing the pin to avoid binding or damage to the workpiece. For blind-hole applications, confirm that the pull out thread is accessible before final assembly.
