Value Collection R57700667 Slotted Spring Pin 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700667 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. Slotted spring pins are hollow, cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows the pin to compress during installation and expand against the hole wall to create a secure, friction-based retention. This pin measures 1.5 inches in overall length and 0.5 inch in diameter. It is suited for assembly and maintenance applications across mechanical, industrial, and trade service environments. Licensed mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly use slotted spring pins for shaft-to-hub connections, hinge assemblies, and component alignment tasks.

This slotted spring pin is used in general mechanical assemblies where a removable or semi-permanent retention pin is needed. The 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it appropriate for wet environments, outdoor equipment, and plumbing or HVAC mechanical assemblies exposed to moisture. It follows inch-system dimensioning and fits standard 0.5-inch drilled or reamed holes in metal, plastic, or composite components. Typical applications include bracket retention, linkage assemblies, and replacement fastener service work.

Key Features

• Slotted design allows radial compression for press-fit installation without special tooling in most applications
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor service conditions
• 1.5-inch overall length suits medium-depth through-hole and blind-hole installations
• 0.5-inch diameter fits standard half-inch drilled holes in inch-measurement assemblies
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series slotted spring pin for general commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.5-inch diameter retention pin.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by maintenance technicians and millwrights using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the receiving hole is drilled or reamed to the correct diameter before installation. De-energize and lock out any equipment before servicing assemblies containing spring pins. Removal is performed by driving the pin through the bore with a punch of appropriate diameter.
