Value Collection MSC67548560X Size 2/0 Steel Taper Pin

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67548560X is a Size 2/0 uncoated steel taper pin manufactured from C-12L14 grade steel and conforming to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2. The pin measures 1.25 inches overall length with a small end diameter of 0.115 inches and a large end diameter of 0.141 inches. Diameter tolerances are held to -0.0007 inches on the minimum side and +0.0013 inches on the maximum side, supporting repeatable, precise fits in taper-reamed holes. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and millwrights use taper pins to secure hubs, collars, and machine components on shafts where positive locking and easy removal are both required.

This taper pin is suited for light-duty shaft-to-hub connections and mechanical assemblies in industrial machinery, conveyor systems, and general fabrication applications. The uncoated finish is appropriate for indoor or protected environments. At Size 2/0, the pin targets small-bore applications where minimal clearance and controlled fit are critical to assembly integrity. Installation requires a properly sized taper reamer to prepare the hole before driving the pin.

Key Features

• Size 2/0 taper pin with 0.115 inch small end diameter and 0.141 inch large end diameter
• C-12L14 free-machining steel for consistent dimensional accuracy and machinability
• 1.25 inch overall length suitable for compact shaft-and-hub assemblies
• Meets ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 dimensional standard for interchangeable taper pin fitment
• Uncoated finish for straightforward inspection and gauge verification
• Tight tolerance range (-0.0007 to +0.0013 inches) supports reliable press-fit retention

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 Size 2/0 taper pin for use in any taper-reamed hole prepared to the corresponding standard dimensions in mechanical assemblies and shaft-locking applications.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a matching taper reamer to size the hole before pin insertion. Drive the pin with a pin punch and hammer until seated; do not force past the designed seating depth. To remove, drive the pin from the large end using a punch sized to the small end diameter. Secure the workpiece and de-energize any associated machinery before servicing.
