Value Collection R57700361 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700361 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. At 9/16 inches in overall length and 1/16 inch in diameter, this pin is designed to retain components in assemblies where a controlled radial force fit is required. The slotted design allows the pin to compress during installation and exert outward spring pressure against the bore wall, resisting loosening from vibration or shock loads. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and assembly professionals install these pins across a wide range of mechanical and industrial applications.

This slotted spring pin is suited for light-duty fastening and retention tasks in machinery, equipment assemblies, and fabricated metal components. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or mild chemical contact. At 0.01 pounds per unit, the pin is a compact fastener intended for fine-pitch or small-bore assembly work in both manufacturing and field-service settings.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive environments
• Slotted design compresses on insertion and maintains radial spring force against bore walls
• Overall length of 9/16 inches suits compact assembly retention needs
• 1/16 inch diameter for use in small-bore applications
• Inch measurement system; does not meet military specifications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for general mechanical assemblies requiring a 1/16 inch diameter, 9/16 inch long retention pin in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation typically requires a pin driver or arbor press sized to the pin diameter to avoid deforming the slot during seating. Ensure the receiving bore diameter matches the pin specification before pressing to avoid over-compression or bore damage. De-energize and lock out any machinery before servicing components that use these pins. Removal is performed with a pin punch and hammer or an extraction tool aligned with the bore centerline.
