Value Collection R57900671 Slotted Spring Pin 1075 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57900671 is a slotted spring pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies where a compressed, self-retaining fastener is required. Manufactured from 1075 steel with a plain finish, this pin measures 50 mm in overall length and relies on its slotted, rolled construction to exert outward spring tension against the wall of a drilled hole. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly workers install these pins in shafts, linkages, brackets, and housings to lock or align components without threading or adhesive. The 1075 steel grade delivers reliable hardness and shear strength for general industrial and mechanical applications.

Slotted spring pins are used across a broad range of industrial, manufacturing, and maintenance applications. They are well suited for light to medium duty assemblies where disassembly and reassembly may be required over the service life of the equipment. Common install scenarios include shaft-to-hub connections, clevis linkages, pivot points, and alignment doweling in metal fabrication and machine maintenance environments. This pin is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it appropriate for shop stock or production runs.

Key Features

• Slotted spring design exerts radial tension for a secure, self-retaining fit in drilled holes
• 1075 steel construction provides solid hardness and shear resistance for general industrial use
• 50 mm overall length suits a range of standard assembly depths
• Plain finish — no coating that could interfere with tight-tolerance hole fits
• Does not meet military specifications — appropriate for commercial and industrial use
• Minimum order quantity of 100 makes this suitable for production stock or bulk maintenance supply

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for general industrial and mechanical assembly applications where a 50 mm plain steel spring pin is specified.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. The receiving hole must be drilled to the correct nominal diameter to ensure proper spring tension and retention. Always verify hole depth and alignment before driving the pin to avoid deforming the slot or damaging the host material. Remove power, pressure, or load from the assembly before servicing any pinned connection.
