Value Collection R57700451 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700451 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins, are hollow cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows the pin to compress during insertion and spring outward to grip the surrounding material. This pin measures 11/16 inches in overall length and 1/8 inch in diameter. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for wet, humid, or mildly corrosive environments. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and industrial mechanics use these pins to secure shafts, hinges, linkages, and machine components where a removable yet firm fastening method is required.

This slotted spring pin is suited for light-duty industrial and mechanical assemblies where inch-measurement fasteners are specified. Typical applications include shaft-to-hub alignment, clevis and linkage retention, and positioning of machine parts in manufacturing, HVAC equipment, and plumbing valve assemblies. At 11/16 inches in length and 1/8 inch in diameter, this pin fits compact assemblies where space is limited. It does not meet military specifications and is intended for standard commercial applications.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• Slotted design allows radial compression during insertion for a secure, spring-loaded grip
• 11/16 inch overall length suits compact mechanical assemblies
• 1/8 inch diameter for use in light-duty shaft and linkage retention applications
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard US fastener specifications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-inch slotted spring pin for commercial mechanical assemblies requiring an 11/16 inch long, 1/8 inch diameter roll pin in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by a qualified mechanic or technician using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the receiving bore diameter matches the nominal pin diameter and that the mating components are properly aligned and secured before driving the pin. Always de-energize and lock out any equipment before servicing components that contain spring pins. Do not reuse pins that show deformation, cracking, or loss of spring tension.
