Value Collection R57700593 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The Value Collection R57700593 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, designed for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a reliable, removable fastening solution. Slotted spring pins are cylindrical, slotted fasteners that compress upon insertion and exert outward spring tension against the hole wall, creating a secure interference fit. This pin measures 1-1/4 inches in length and 1/4 inch in diameter. Its 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance, making it suitable for environments where mild chemical exposure or moisture is a concern. Machinists, millwrights, and mechanical assembly technicians are the primary installers.

This slotted spring pin is suited for general industrial and mechanical assembly applications, including shaft-to-hub connections, linkage assemblies, and light-duty hinge pivot points. It performs well in residential and commercial equipment maintenance scenarios where a standard inch-measurement fastener is required. The 1/4 inch diameter and 1-1/4 inch length make it appropriate for medium-duty fastening tasks in machinery, conveyors, and equipment panels. This item is sold individually per package and is ordered in multiples of 100.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive environments
• Slotted design compresses on insertion, providing a secure spring-tension fit in the host bore
• 1-1/4 inch overall length suitable for medium-wall and moderate-depth assemblies
• 1/4 inch diameter matches standard inch-series hole tolerances
• Reusable and removable without damaging the mating bore under normal service conditions

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 1/4 inch diameter bore and 1-1/4 inch pin length; consult assembly drawings to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or mechanical technician using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before inserting or removing spring pins from any powered assembly. The pin should be aligned squarely with the bore before driving to prevent deformation of the slot. Removal is accomplished with a pin punch applied to the end face of the pin.
