Value Collection MSC-67600841 Dowel Pin 1/4x1/2 Ss 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67600841 is a standard pull out dowel pin machined from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It measures 0.25 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for precise locating fits. Pull out dowel pins include a threaded or relief feature that allows extraction after assembly, making them the right choice when disassembly access is limited. This pin is suited for jig and fixture work, machine assembly, and tooling applications where corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy are required. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

Standard pull out dowel pins are used in light-duty to medium-duty locating and alignment applications across manufacturing, maintenance, and fabrication environments. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good resistance to corrosion and mild chemicals, making these pins appropriate for food processing equipment, wet environments, and general industrial machinery. At 0.25 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches in length, this pin fits compact hole patterns where space is constrained. This SKU ships in a package quantity of one pin, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Pull out design allows extraction after assembly without damage to the mating part
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and mild chemical environments
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional integrity without added coating thickness
• Tight diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches supports precise locating fits
• Compact 0.25 x 0.5 inch size fits tight-clearance tooling and fixture layouts

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-type pull out dowel pin for use in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and general industrial machinery requiring 0.25-inch diameter locating holes.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of dowel pins is typically performed by machinists or maintenance mechanics using a press or appropriate extraction tool. Always verify hole diameter and tolerance match the pin specifications before pressing or driving. Avoid hammering pins directly without a proper driver to prevent galling the mating bore. Ensure the mating component is fully supported and secure during both installation and extraction.
