Value Collection MSC67553040X Taper Pin Size 9 5 Inches

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67553040X is a Size 9 steel taper pin manufactured to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 standards. It features a small end diameter of 0.487 inches and a large end diameter of 0.591 inches, with an overall length of 5 inches. Made from C-12L14 steel in an uncoated finish, this taper pin is designed for secure, self-locking connections between shafts and hubs, levers, collars, and similar mechanical assemblies. Machinists and mechanical technicians install taper pins where reliable, removable fastening is needed without secondary locking hardware.

This taper pin is suited for general industrial and mechanical maintenance applications where standard ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 sizing is specified. It is appropriate for light to medium-duty assemblies in manufacturing, equipment repair, and machine shop environments. The C-12L14 steel grade offers good machinability, making it a practical choice for applications where the pin may need to be driven in or removed repeatedly. Sold individually, this pin fits Size 9 taper pin holes reamed to ANSI specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or mechanical technicians using a taper pin reamer, pin punch, and hammer or arbor press. Always ensure the mating hole is reamed to the correct Size 9 ANSI taper before driving the pin. Remove all load and de-energize any associated equipment before servicing the assembly. Drive the pin from the small end and verify full seating before returning the assembly to service.
