Value Collection R57900701 Slotted Spring Pin 32mm 5mm Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57900701 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 1070-1080 grade carbon steel with a plain finish. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins, are cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows them to compress on insertion and spring outward against the bore wall, creating a secure, vibration-resistant hold without threads or adhesives. This pin measures 32 mm in overall length with a 5 mm diameter. It is a metric-dimensioned fastener suited for general mechanical assemblies where a reliable, removable retention pin is required across light to medium-duty applications.

Slotted spring pins are used across a wide range of mechanical and industrial assemblies including linkages, hinges, shafts, brackets, and pivot points. They are common in HVAC equipment, plumbing valve assemblies, pump mechanisms, and general fabrication work where alignment or retention of a shaft or component is needed. This plain-finish steel pin is appropriate for dry or lightly oiled interior environments. This part does not meet military specifications and is intended for standard commercial and industrial applications.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses on insertion for a secure spring-loaded fit in the bore
• 1070-1080 grade carbon steel construction for strength in general-duty applications
• Plain finish suitable for dry or lightly oiled interior environments
• Metric dimensioning: 32 mm length, 5 mm diameter
• No threads required — installs and removes with standard pin punches and a hammer

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric slotted spring pin for use in general commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 5 mm diameter, 32 mm long retention or alignment pin.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the bore diameter matches the specified pin diameter before driving to avoid bore damage or pin deformation. Always support the workpiece adequately during installation to prevent deflection or misalignment. Remove worn or damaged pins using a correctly sized punch driven from the slotted end when possible.
