Value Collection R57700415 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700415 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 the pin to compress on insertion and exert outward spring pressure against the bore wall. This self-retaining design eliminates the need for secondary locking hardware. At 9/16 inches in length and 3/32 inches in diameter, this pin suits light-duty fastening applications where corrosion resistance and consistent retention force are required. Tradespeople and assembly technicians install these pins by hand or with a roll pin punch and hammer.

This slotted spring pin is suited for use in mechanical assemblies, linkage connections, hinge pins, and pivot applications across industrial, plumbing, HVAC, and general trade environments. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or conditions where carbon steel would corrode prematurely. Its compact dimensions make it a common choice in tight-clearance assemblies where a solid pin would require precise boring tolerances.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses on insertion for self-retaining fit without secondary fasteners
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments
• 9/16 inches overall length suits compact mechanical assemblies
• 3/32 inches diameter for light-duty fastening and pivot applications
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard US tooling and bore specs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/32 inches diameter slotted spring pin in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or tradespeople using a roll pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always ensure the bore diameter matches the pin specification before installation to avoid over-compression or improper retention. De-energize and lock out any equipment before servicing assemblies that contain spring pins. Do not reuse a spring pin that has been removed, as repeated compression cycles can fatigue the slot and reduce retention force.
