Value Collection R57900873 Slotted Spring Pin 32mm 12mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57900873 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 1070-1080 grade carbon steel with a plain finish. Slotted spring pins are hollow, longitudinally slotted fasteners designed to compress radially when driven into a hole, creating a secure, vibration-resistant retention of shafts, levers, and linkages in assemblies. This pin measures 32 mm in length and 12 mm in diameter, making it suitable for medium-to-heavy duty industrial fastening applications. The 1070-1080 steel grade provides adequate hardness and spring back for reliable retention force in drilled or reamed holes. Installation is performed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers in production, MRO, and repair environments.

This slotted spring pin is used in industrial and mechanical assemblies where a removable or permanent shaft retention solution is required. Typical applications include securing gears, pulleys, levers, and cams to shafts in machinery, agricultural equipment, material handling equipment, and general industrial assemblies. The metric dimensioning makes this pin appropriate for equipment manufactured to metric specifications. The plain finish is suitable for indoor or protected environments where corrosion exposure is limited.

Key Features

• 1070-1080 carbon steel construction for consistent spring-back and retention force
• 32 mm overall length for medium-depth shaft and bore installations
• 12 mm diameter for medium-to-heavy load applications
• Slotted design allows radial compression for secure, vibration-resistant fit
• Plain finish suitable for protected indoor assembly environments
• Metric dimensioning compatible with metric-spec equipment and tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric slotted spring pin for use in any assembly requiring a 12 mm bore diameter and 32 mm pin length retention solution in industrial or mechanical equipment.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by mechanical technicians or assemblers using a pin punch and hammer or a hydraulic press, depending on fit tolerance and material. Always ensure the receiving bore is clean, free of burrs, and within the appropriate tolerance before driving the pin. Do not exceed the pin diameter clearance specified for the assembly, as overdriving can deform the pin or damage the bore. Review applicable machinery safety lockout and tagout procedures before servicing any assembly containing spring pins.
