Value Collection R57900521 Slotted Spring Pin 22mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57900521 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 1070-1080 grade steel with a plain finish. Slotted spring pins are hollow, longitudinally slotted fasteners that compress during installation and exert radial force against the hole wall to retain their position without additional hardware. This pin measures 22 mm in length and 2 mm in diameter, placing it in the light-duty metric fastener category. It is used in mechanical assemblies to secure shafts, gears, levers, and linkages. Installation is performed by mechanical assemblers, millwrights, and precision equipment technicians working within metric tolerance systems.

This slotted spring pin is suited for use in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies where metric fasteners are specified. Typical applications include shaft-to-hub connections, clevis pin retention, and positional alignment in machine components. The 22 mm length accommodates standard boss and hub widths common in metric-dimensioned assemblies. The plain steel finish makes it appropriate for interior or protected applications where corrosion exposure is limited. This part is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it well suited for production-line or bulk maintenance procurement.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses on insertion and applies radial holding force for secure, hardware-free retention
• 1070-1080 grade steel construction provides reliable tensile and shear strength for light to medium loads
• 22 mm overall length in metric sizing for standard metric-dimensioned assemblies
• 2 mm diameter for use in small-bore precision applications
• Plain finish suitable for dry or protected interior environments
• Sold in multiples of 100 units, appropriate for production and bulk maintenance use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies specifying a 2 mm diameter, 22 mm long pin to ISO or DIN metric fastener standards.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by mechanical assemblers and maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. The receiving hole should be drilled and reamed to the correct diameter tolerance to ensure proper radial compression and retention force. Disassembly requires a punch slightly smaller than the pin diameter to avoid hole wall damage. Always verify that the pin slot is oriented correctly per the assembly drawing before driving fully into position.
