Value Collection R57700395 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700395 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, designed to provide reliable fastening and alignment in mechanical assemblies. Measuring 3/4 inches in overall length with a 5/64 inch diameter, this pin uses its slotted, rolled construction to exert radial pressure against the bore wall, resisting vibration-induced loosening without requiring adhesives or secondary locking hardware. Its 18-8 stainless steel composition offers solid corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments. Maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers working on pumps, valves, linkages, and general industrial equipment will find this pin well suited for light-duty alignment and retention tasks.

This slotted spring pin is intended for use in inch-standard mechanical assemblies where a small-diameter, corrosion-resistant retention pin is required. Typical applications include pump lever linkages, valve assemblies, light machinery, and general fabrication work where the bore diameter accommodates a 5/64 inch pin. The stainless steel material makes it suitable for wet or humid environments such as plumbing infrastructure, HVAC equipment mounting hardware, and pool or irrigation system components.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and humid service environments
• Slotted spring design exerts radial force against bore wall for vibration-resistant retention
• 3/4 inch overall length suits compact mechanical assemblies
• 5/64 inch diameter fits standard inch-series bores
• Inch system of measurement for compatibility with standard tooling and gauges

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for inch-standard mechanical assemblies requiring a slotted spring pin in a 5/64 inch bore diameter.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before pin installation or removal. Drive the pin squarely into the bore to avoid deforming the slot. Do not reuse a pin that has been plastically deformed or cracked during removal.
