Taper pins are precision fasteners used to secure hubs, collars, and machine components to shafts, providing accurate and repeatable alignment. This pin measures 3.5 inches in overall length with a small end diameter of 0.4192 inches and a large end diameter of 0.492 inches. The passivated stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments. It conforms to ANSI\/ASME B18.8.2 dimensional standards, making it a direct-fit replacement in applications specifying a Size 8 taper pin to that standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper pin is suited for use in mechanical assemblies found in HVAC equipment, pumps, motors, and general industrial machinery. It is commonly installed by maintenance technicians and millwrights during shaft-to-hub assembly, equipment overhaul, or precision alignment work. The stainless steel material and passivated surface make it appropriate for environments where moisture exposure or mild corrosive conditions are a concern, including pool equipment, plumbing pump assemblies, and refrigeration mechanical systems.\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\u003e303 grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePassivated finish enhances surface corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmall end diameter of 0.4192 inches with a maximum diameter tolerance of 0.0013 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge end diameter of 0.492 inches with a minimum diameter tolerance of -0.0007 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.5 inches overall length suitable for standard Size 8 taper pin applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement taper pin for mechanical assemblies requiring a Size 8 taper pin conforming to ANSI\/ASME B18.8.2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaper pins are typically installed and removed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before servicing any shaft or hub assembly. The tapered hole in the mating components must be reamed to the correct Size 8 taper to ensure proper fit and load transfer. Do not force an oversized pin into an underreamed hole, as this can crack the hub or distort 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\u003ePin Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-8, 303\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Passivated\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\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: MSC67702969X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698615222578,"sku":"MSC67702969X","price":24.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/90c470d493e7b080e27c37222692a723.jpg?v=1788365485","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc67702969x-taper-pin-size-8-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
