Value Collection R57700419 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700419 is a slotted spring pin machined from 18-8 stainless steel, measuring 11/16 inches in overall length and 3/32 inches in diameter. Slotted spring pins — also called roll pins or tension pins — are hollow, slotted fasteners that compress radially as they are driven into a drilled hole, creating a secure interference fit without adhesives or threads. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive service environments. This pin is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and general assemblers working on mechanical assemblies, linkages, and shaft-to-hub connections across industrial, plumbing, and HVAC equipment.

This slotted spring pin is suited for light-duty fastening applications where a removable, reusable retention device is needed in a relatively small-diameter hole. Typical installations include retaining clevis pins, securing gears or collars to shafts, and aligning mating components during assembly. The inch-dimensioned sizing makes it compatible with standard inch-system drilled hole patterns. It is well suited for indoor mechanical assemblies and moderate outdoor exposure where stainless steel corrosion resistance is preferred over plain carbon steel alternatives.

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 aggressive environments
• 11/16 inch overall length fits standard inch-system hole patterns
• 3/32 inch diameter for light-duty, small-clearance fastening applications
• Reusable and removable without damaging the mating bore when properly extracted

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or maintenance stock slotted spring pin for inch-dimensioned mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/32 inch diameter pin hole.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly sized drilled hole and is typically performed with a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. De-energize and lock out any equipment before driving or removing spring pins. Use a punch diameter equal to or slightly smaller than the pin bore to avoid deforming the slot during installation or extraction. Follow applicable machinery safety standards and the equipment manufacturer's service documentation when servicing assemblies that use spring pins as retention fasteners.
