Value Collection MSC67700120X Taper Pin Size 5/0 Stainless

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67700120X is a Size 5/0 taper pin machined from Grade 303 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish. It measures 0.5 inches in overall length with a small end diameter of 0.0836 inches and a large end diameter of 0.094 inches. Taper pins are precision fasteners used to secure components onto shafts or to locate mating parts in fixed alignment. The passivated stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically exposed environments. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians install these pins during assembly or repair work where repeatable, precise alignment is required.

This taper pin is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies in industrial, commercial, and maintenance applications. The Size 5/0 designation corresponds to a standardized taper geometry per ANSI/ASME B18.8.2, making it a direct fit wherever that standard is called out. Typical uses include shaft-to-hub connections, gear and pulley locking, and fixture alignment in machine tooling. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 10 units per purchase.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or maintenance spare for mechanical assemblies requiring an ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 Size 5/0 taper pin in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Taper pins are typically installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a taper pin reamer to prepare the mating hole to the correct taper and diameter before driving the pin. De-energize and lock out all equipment before servicing any assembly that contains this pin. Use a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press to seat and remove the pin; do not force an improperly sized pin into a hole, as this can damage the workpiece or split the hub.
