Value Collection R57700359 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700359 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel for reliable performance in corrosive and high-cycle environments. With an overall length of 0.5 inches and a diameter of 0.0625 inches, this pin is sized for precision fastening applications where consistent spring tension and radial grip are required. The slotted design allows the pin to compress during installation and expand within the host bore, creating a secure interference fit without adhesives or secondary locking hardware. Installers in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and general industrial assembly rely on this type of fastener to secure components in tight tolerances.

This slotted spring pin is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies where a small-diameter, corrosion-resistant fastener is needed. Common applications include linkage assemblies, panel fastening, control arm connections, and general component alignment in both residential and light commercial equipment. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for wet or chemically exposed environments where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• Slotted spring design provides radial clamping force for a secure interference fit in the bore
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments
• Compact 0.5-inch length and 0.0625-inch diameter for tight-clearance installations
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard imperial tooling and bore specifications
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for use in general mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.0625-inch diameter, 0.5-inch long imperial-sized roll pin in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by mechanical technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always ensure the receiving bore diameter and depth are within specification before driving the pin to avoid splitting or distortion. Wear appropriate eye protection during hammer installation to guard against pin fragments. Remove all spring tension or mechanical load from the assembly before driving or extracting pins.
