Value Collection MSC67700088X Size 6/0 Taper Pin 303 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67700088X is a Size 6/0 taper pin manufactured from 18-8 Grade 303 stainless steel with a passivated finish. The pin measures 1 inch overall length, with a small end diameter of 0.0572 inches and a large end diameter of 0.078 inches. Taper pins are precision fasteners used to locate, align, or lock components on shafts and in assemblies. The passivated stainless construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments. This pin conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 standards, making it a reliable choice for maintenance, repair, and original equipment assembly work across mechanical and industrial applications.

Size 6/0 taper pins are commonly installed in light-duty mechanical assemblies where precise component alignment is required. Typical applications include securing hubs, collars, levers, and similar parts to shafts in equipment where disassembly and reassembly are performed during routine service. The passivated 303 stainless steel construction suits environments with exposure to moisture or mild corrosives, such as food processing equipment, marine hardware, and HVAC or plumbing valve assemblies. Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians using standard taper pin reamers and drive tools.

Key Features

• Conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 for consistent dimensional accuracy and interchangeability
• Grade 303 18-8 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly aggressive environments
• Passivated finish enhances surface corrosion protection without altering pin dimensions
• Size 6/0 with 1 inch overall length suits light-duty alignment and locking applications
• Controlled diameter tolerances: -0.0007 inches minimum, +0.0013 inches maximum

Compatibility

Designed as an ANSI/ASME B18.8.2-compliant Size 6/0 taper pin for use in any standard taper pin reamed hole requiring that size designation.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a correctly sized taper pin reamer to prepare the hole before driving the pin. Always power down and de-energize any equipment before working on shaft assemblies. Drive the pin with a pin punch and hammer to the correct seating depth; do not force an oversized pin into an undersized hole. Remove taper pins by driving from the small end using an appropriate punch.
