Value Collection R57700687 Slotted Spring Pin 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57700687 is a slotted spring pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies where a removable, load-bearing fastener is required. Measuring 1/2 inch in overall length with a 5/32 inch diameter, this pin is manufactured from 1070-1090 alloy steel with a plain finish. Slotted spring pins compress radially during installation, allowing them to seat firmly in drilled holes and resist axial and rotational movement under load. This part is sold as a single pin and is subject to a minimum order quantity of 250 units, making it well-suited for production or MRO purchasing.

This slotted spring pin is used in a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications including shaft-to-hub connections, linkage assemblies, hinges, and general fastening in machinery and equipment. The alloy steel construction provides adequate strength and resilience for moderate-duty dynamic load applications in both light industrial and manufacturing environments. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch overall length with 5/32 inch diameter for compact fastening applications
• 1070-1090 alloy steel construction provides strength and spring-back during installation
• Plain finish suitable for standard indoor mechanical environments
• Slotted design allows radial compression for secure interference fit in drilled holes
• Sold as single unit with minimum order quantity of 250 for production or MRO use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 5/32 inch diameter hole and 1/2 inch engagement depth. Confirm hole diameter and depth tolerances against application engineering requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the receiving hole is clean and dimensionally correct before driving the pin to avoid damage to the slotted body. Do not exceed the designed interference fit by forcing an oversized pin into an undersized hole. Always verify that the host assembly is depressurized and de-energized before servicing components that incorporate spring pins.
