Value Collection R63090061 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63090061 is a slotted spring pin sized at 0.125 inches in diameter and 0.75 inches in length, manufactured from grade 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. Slotted spring pins are cylindrical fasteners with a lengthwise slot that allows radial compression during installation, creating a tight interference fit inside a drilled hole. The spring action of the slot holds the pin firmly in place without adhesives or additional hardware. This design makes the pin reusable and self-retaining across a wide range of assembly and maintenance applications where vibration resistance and consistent holding force are required.

Slotted spring pins in this size range are commonly used in light mechanical assemblies, linkages, hinges, and retention applications across industrial, HVAC equipment, plumbing fixture, and general trade maintenance work. The 420 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance and moderate hardness, making it appropriate for indoor mechanical assemblies and equipment exposed to moisture. This pin is sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it well suited for service shops and assembly operations that maintain a fastener inventory.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses radially on insertion for a self-retaining interference fit
• Grade 420 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance and moderate hardness
• Bright finish for clean appearance and dimensional consistency
• 0.125 inch diameter fits standard 1/8 inch drilled holes
• 0.75 inch overall length suits shallow-to-mid-depth retention applications
• Does not meet military specifications — suited for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for use in any commercial or industrial mechanical assembly requiring a 0.125 inch diameter, 0.75 inch long retention pin in 420 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers using a hammer and pin punch or an arbor press sized to the pin diameter. Always ensure the receiving hole is drilled to the correct diameter and is free of burrs before driving the pin. Support the workpiece firmly to avoid distortion during installation. Use a pin removal punch to extract the pin without damaging the bore or surrounding material during servicing.
