It features a small end diameter of 0.4192 inches and a large end diameter of 0.492 inches, with an overall length of 3.5 inches. Taper pins are precision fastening components used to locate, align, or secure mating parts such as hubs, collars, and shafts in mechanical assemblies. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians install these pins to maintain repeatable positioning and prevent rotational or axial movement between joined components. The uncoated finish is suitable for dry or lightly oiled indoor mechanical environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper pin is suited for general industrial, mechanical maintenance, and machine shop applications where ANSI\/ASME B18.8.2 standardized sizing is required. Typical install scenarios include securing shaft collars to drive shafts, pinning gear hubs, and aligning fixture components during fabrication. The Size 8 designation corresponds to a standardized taper that mates with matching reamed holes in conforming assemblies. This part is sold individually and is appropriate for both original assembly and field replacement work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSize 8 taper pin per ANSI\/ASME B18.8.2 standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC-12L14 free-machining steel construction for consistent dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmall end diameter of 0.4192 inches with a tolerance range of -0.0007 to +0.0013 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge end diameter of 0.492 inches for proper taper engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.5 inches overall length suits medium-depth hub and collar installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish for use in standard dry or lightly lubricated mechanical assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard Size 8 taper pin replacement or original-fit component for mechanical assemblies requiring ANSI\/ASME B18.8.2 conforming taper pins with a matching reamed hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaper pins are typically installed and removed by machinists or millwrights using a pin punch, hammer, or arbor press. The mating hole must be reamed to the correct taper before installation to ensure full contact along the pin length. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before servicing any assembly containing taper pins. Do not force an oversized pin into an under-reamed hole, as this can crack the hub or damage the shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Pin Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4192 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.492 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: C-12L14 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0007 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0013 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\/ASME B18.8.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MSC67552489X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51712832045362,"sku":"MSC67552489X","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2877a5d544085b044f828c3dd5a5e02a.jpg?v=1788488878","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc67552489x-size-8-steel-taper-pin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
