Value Collection R57700357 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700357 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins, are cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows radial compression during installation. This compression creates a spring-loaded grip inside a drilled hole, securing shafts, linkages, and assemblies without threads or adhesives. At 7/16 inches in length and 1/16 inches in diameter, this pin suits precision mechanical assemblies where a compact, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. Maintenance technicians, machinists, and mechanical contractors install these pins using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press.

This slotted spring pin is suited for light-duty mechanical applications across industrial, commercial, and trade settings. Typical uses include securing gears, levers, couplings, and hinges in equipment assemblies. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where mild corrosion resistance is needed, such as wet or outdoor service conditions. This pin is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it practical for stocking in field service kits or maintenance shop inventory.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive environments
• Slotted design allows radial compression for a secure interference fit in drilled holes
• Compact 7/16 inches length and 1/16 inches diameter for use in tight mechanical assemblies
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard drilled hole tolerances
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for use in drilled holes sized to accept a 1/16 inches nominal diameter roll pin in commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or mechanical maintenance technicians. Power down and de-energize any equipment before servicing assemblies containing spring pins. Drive the pin into the host hole using a pin punch sized to the pin diameter and a hammer, or use an arbor press for controlled insertion. Do not reuse a spring pin that has been fully removed, as repeated compression cycles can reduce clamping force.
