Value Collection MSC67700047X Taper Pin Size 6/0 Stainless

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67700047X is a Size 6/0 taper pin made from Grade 303 18-8 passivated stainless steel. It features a small end diameter of 0.0624 inches and a large end diameter of 0.078 inches, with an overall length of 0.75 inches. Taper pins are precision fasteners used to secure hubs, collars, and other machine components to shafts, providing a reliable and removable alignment solution. The passivated finish enhances corrosion resistance, making this pin suitable for applications where moisture or mild chemical exposure is a concern. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and industrial assembly workers are the primary installers of this hardware.

This taper pin is intended for use in light-duty mechanical assemblies where a Size 6/0 pin is specified per ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 standards. Typical applications include shaft-to-hub connections, lever and linkage assemblies, and precision positioning fixtures in industrial equipment. The small form factor makes it well suited for fine-tolerance assemblies in manufacturing and maintenance environments. This pin is sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of 10 per minimum order quantity requirements.

Key Features

• Grade 303 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed environments
• Passivated finish provides an additional layer of oxidation protection
• Conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 dimensional standards for taper pins
• Small end diameter of 0.0624 inches and large end diameter of 0.078 inches for precise taper engagement
• Compact 0.75-inch overall length suitable for fine-tolerance and space-constrained assemblies
• Minimum diameter tolerance of -0.0007 inches and maximum diameter tolerance of +0.0013 inches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Size 6/0 taper pin conforming to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2, compatible with any application or tooling that specifies a Size 6/0 taper pin to that standard.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are typically installed and removed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the mating hole is reamed to the correct taper before driving the pin to avoid galling or distortion of the stainless steel. De-energize and lock out any machinery before servicing assemblies that contain taper pins. Do not force an oversized pin into an undersized hole, as this can damage both the pin and the workpiece.
