Value Collection R57700367 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700367 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins or tension pins, are cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows radial compression during installation. This design creates a spring-loaded interference fit inside a drilled hole, holding the pin securely without adhesives or secondary fasteners. At 0.75 inches long and 1/16 inch in diameter, this pin suits compact assemblies where precise, reliable fastening is required. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for wet, outdoor, or mildly chemical environments. Installed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians across a wide range of mechanical assemblies.

This slotted spring pin is used in light- to medium-duty mechanical assemblies including linkages, hinges, pivot points, and shaft-to-component connections in both industrial and commercial applications. The small diameter and standard inch-system dimensioning make it compatible with common drill sizes used in domestic fabrication and repair work. It is well suited for applications where weight is a factor or where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses radially for a secure interference fit in drilled holes
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or mildly corrosive environments
• Inch-system dimensions: 0.75 inches long, 1/16 inch diameter
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds per unit, suited for compact or weight-sensitive assemblies
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-system slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 1/16 inch diameter roll pin installation hole.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by a machinist or maintenance technician using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. The receiving hole should be drilled to the correct diameter per standard pin fit charts before installation. Always ensure machinery or assemblies are de-energized and at rest before driving or removing pins. Do not reuse heavily deformed pins, as repeated compression cycles can reduce holding force.
