Value Collection R57900573 Slotted Spring Pin 14mm 3mm Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57900573 is a metric slotted spring pin manufactured from 1070-1080 steel with a plain finish. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins, are hollow cylindrical fasteners with a lengthwise slot that allows radial compression during installation. This design creates a spring-back clamping force against the bore wall, securing the pin without adhesive or additional hardware. At 14 mm in overall length and 3 mm in diameter, this pin is sized for light-duty to medium-duty assemblies. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assembly workers install these pins in shafts, hinges, linkages, and other precision assemblies where a removable, self-retaining fastener is required.

This slotted spring pin is suited for metric mechanical assemblies across industrial, agricultural, and general equipment maintenance applications. The 1070-1080 steel construction provides sufficient tensile strength for typical shear-load fastening tasks in metal-to-metal assemblies. The plain finish is appropriate for interior or protected locations where corrosion exposure is minimal. This pin is sold individually and is ordered in multiples of 100 units minimum, making it practical for shops and facilities that maintain fastener stock for repetitive maintenance or production work.

Key Features

• Slotted design allows radial compression for self-retaining installation in drilled bores
• 1070-1080 steel construction provides reliable shear strength for general mechanical assemblies
• Metric sizing: 14 mm overall length, 3 mm diameter
• Plain finish suitable for protected or interior assembly environments
• Reusable and removable without special extraction tooling in most applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric slotted spring pin for use in any application requiring a 3 mm nominal diameter roll pin in a 14 mm length, consistent with metric mechanical assembly and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a roll pin punch and hammer sized to the 3 mm pin diameter. The receiving bore should be drilled to the appropriate nominal diameter per standard slotted spring pin bore tolerance tables. Ensure all moving components are de-energized and secured before driving or extracting pins from live machinery. A pin starter punch is recommended to seat the pin squarely before driving to full depth.
