Value Collection R57700353 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700353 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins, are hollow cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows the pin to compress upon insertion and exert radial pressure against the hole wall for a secure, vibration-resistant fit. This pin measures 1/4 inch in overall length and 1/16 inch in diameter. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance in moderate environments. These pins are installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly workers in mechanical assemblies where positive retention of shafts, gears, levers, or linkages is required.

This slotted spring pin is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies in general industrial, maintenance, and manufacturing applications. Its compact 1/4-inch length and 1/16-inch diameter make it appropriate for small-bore applications where minimal hole interference is needed. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it suitable for production or bulk maintenance stocking.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses on insertion for a self-retaining, vibration-resistant fit
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in moderate-duty environments
• 1/4 inch overall length for compact, space-constrained applications
• 1/16 inch diameter for small-bore hole fitment
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard imperial-dimensioned assemblies
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for general commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 1/16-inch diameter, 1/4-inch long roll pin in imperial sizing.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press — never drive them with impact force that could deform the slot beyond its elastic range. Ensure the receiving hole diameter matches the nominal pin diameter per applicable tolerance standards before installation. De-energize or lock out any machinery before installing or removing pins from live assemblies in accordance with applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures.
