Value Collection R57700609 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700609 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 radial compression during insertion. This design creates a spring-loaded grip inside a drilled hole, locking shafts, linkages, and assemblies together without additional hardware. At 2.5 inches long and 0.25 inch in diameter, this pin suits medium-duty mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance is required. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good resistance to rust, mild acids, and general moisture exposure. Installation requires no threading and minimal tooling, making it a field-serviceable fastener for maintenance and repair applications.

This slotted spring pin is suited for mechanical, industrial, and general trade applications where a removable or semi-permanent shaft retention solution is needed. Common uses include securing gears, levers, and clevis pins on agricultural equipment, HVAC machinery, pumps, and general fabrication assemblies. The inch-dimensioned sizing is consistent with standard imperial drilled hole specifications. Sold individually per package.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses radially on insertion for a secure interference fit
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and mildly corrosive environments
• 2.5 inch length accommodates medium-depth assemblies and through-shaft applications
• 0.25 inch diameter matches standard quarter-inch drilled hole patterns
• No threading required — installs and removes with basic hand tools or a pin punch

Compatibility

Designed as a standard imperial slotted spring pin for use in any application requiring a 0.25 inch diameter roll pin hole and 2.5 inch engagement depth.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by aligning the pin with a properly sized drilled hole and driving it in with a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the hole diameter matches the nominal pin diameter per standard engineering fit tables before installation. Wear appropriate eye protection when driving pins. To remove, drive the pin out from the opposite end using a punch sized smaller than the pin bore.
