Value Collection MSC67704007X Taper Pin Size 5 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC67704007X is a Size 5 threaded taper pin machined from C-12L14 steel with an uncoated finish. The pin features a large end diameter of 0.287 inches, a neck diameter of 0.198 inches, and a 1/4-28 threaded end that accepts a standard nut for positive retention. Maximum diameter tolerance is held to 0.0013 inches, making this pin suitable for precision alignment and fastening applications. It meets AN386 standards and is sold individually. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals use this pin where repeatable, accurate alignment between mating components is required.

Threaded taper pins are common in mechanical assemblies where a standard straight pin would be inadequate for retention or disassembly. The 1/4-28 thread allows a nut to be driven against the assembly to lock the pin in place and also provides a pull point for controlled removal without damage to the mating bores. This Size 5 pin is suited to light-to-medium duty shaft-to-hub connections, linkages, and fixture alignment in manufacturing, industrial maintenance, and general mechanical assembly environments.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit taper pin for mechanical assemblies requiring a Size 5 threaded taper pin conforming to AN386 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a reamed taper hole sized to match the pin taper. The mating bore must be clean and free of burrs before driving the pin. A nut threaded onto the 1/4-28 end should be torqued only to the value specified by the assembly drawing or equipment manufacturer. Always de-energize and lock out any machinery before servicing components that incorporate taper pins.
