Value Collection MSC-67601963 Dowel Pin 3/8 X 3 in Ss 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67601963 is a standard pull out dowel pin machined from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It measures 3/8 inch in diameter and 3 inches in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for precise fitment in close-tolerance holes. Pull out dowel pins include a threaded extraction point that allows removal from blind holes without damage to the mating components. This type of pin is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians in fixturing, jig and die, and general mechanical assembly applications where accurate, repeatable alignment is required.

This pin is suited for industrial and manufacturing environments where corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy are both priorities. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for wet, washdown, or mildly corrosive service conditions. Common applications include fixture alignment, precision component registration, and machine assembly where a standard carbon steel pin would not meet corrosion requirements. The bright finish indicates no secondary coating is applied, preserving the as-ground dimensional tolerances.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or washdown environments
• Diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches supports close-tolerance alignment applications
• Pull out design with threaded extraction point enables removal from blind holes
• Bright, uncoated finish preserves machined dimensions without coating buildup
• 3/8 inch diameter by 3 inches overall length fits standard tooling and fixture hole patterns

Compatibility

Designed as a standard pull out dowel pin for use in precision fixturing, jig and die work, and mechanical assembly applications requiring a 3/8 inch nominal diameter alignment pin in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a press or mallet with a suitable driver. Ensure the receiving hole is reamed to the proper tolerance before pressing the pin into place. De-energize and lock out any machinery before performing pin installation or removal. Use the threaded extraction port with the appropriate puller tool to remove the pin from blind holes without damaging the bore.
