Value Collection MSC67549923X Taper Pin Size 3 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67549923X is a size 3 taper pin machined from C-12L14 steel with no coating applied. Taper pins are precision-fastening components used to secure hubs, collars, and similar parts to shafts by driving the pin through a matching tapered hole. The small end diameter is 0.1826 inches and the large end diameter is 0.219 inches, with an overall length of 1.75 inches. Diameter tolerances conform to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2, making this pin a standard replacement or new-installation choice where dimensional accuracy is required. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the typical end users.

This taper pin is suited for light-duty to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in industrial, commercial, and trade-shop environments. Common applications include shaft-to-hub connections on motors, pumps, and gear reducers, as well as jig and fixture work where repeatable, removable pinning is needed. The uncoated steel finish is appropriate for interior or protected installations where corrosion exposure is minimal. This SKU is sold individually, but a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces applies per order.

Key Features

• ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 compliant — meets dimensional and tolerance standards for size 3 taper pins
• C-12L14 free-machining steel construction for consistent finish and machinability
• Small end diameter of 0.1826 inches with a maximum diameter tolerance of 0.0013 inches
• Large end diameter of 0.219 inches with a minimum diameter tolerance of -0.0007 inches
• 1.75 inches overall length suits standard size 3 reamed-hole assemblies
• Uncoated surface for direct installation without additional prep

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension replacement or new-installation taper pin for any size 3 ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 taper pin application where the hole has been properly reamed to size 3 specifications.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a properly sized taper pin reamer to prepare the hole before driving the pin. Power down and de-energize the equipment fully before disassembling any shaft or hub connection. Drive the pin with a pin punch and hammer to the correct seating depth; do not force an oversized pin into an under-reamed hole. Removal is accomplished by driving from the small end with a punch.
