Value Collection R57900731 Slotted Spring Pin 20mm 6mm Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57900731 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 1070-1080 grade carbon steel with a plain finish. Slotted spring pins are cylindrical fasteners with a lengthwise slot that allows the pin to compress during installation and exert radial pressure against the bore wall, creating a secure, vibration-resistant fit without additional hardware. This pin measures 20 mm in overall length and 6 mm in diameter. It is a standard metric fastener used across mechanical assemblies, manufactured equipment, and light industrial applications. Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers working on production machinery, jigs, fixtures, and general-purpose equipment.

This slotted spring pin is suited for metric fastening applications where a self-retaining, reusable pin is required. Common use cases include alignment of machine components, securing linkages, and serving as a drive pin or stop pin in mechanical subassemblies. The plain finish is appropriate for interior, dry, or lightly controlled environments where corrosion resistance is not a primary requirement. This pin does not meet military specifications and is intended for commercial and industrial applications.

Key Features

• 20 mm overall length for a standard metric footprint in mechanical assemblies
• 6 mm diameter with slotted body allowing compression fit into drilled bores
• 1070-1080 carbon steel construction for reliable strength and fatigue resistance
• Plain finish for use in dry or low-humidity environments
• Metric system of measurement for compatibility with metric-dimensioned components
• Reusable design allows removal and reinstallation without damaging the bore

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard service pin for metric mechanical assemblies requiring a 6 mm slotted spring pin with a 20 mm overall length.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by mechanical assemblers and maintenance technicians using a pin punch and mallet or an arbor press. Ensure the receiving bore is drilled to the correct diameter per the pin manufacturer specifications before pressing the pin into place. Degrease mating surfaces as needed before installation. Inspect the bore and pin for burrs or damage before reinstalling a used pin.
