Value Collection R63090488 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63090488 is a slotted spring pin machined from 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. It measures 0.125 inches in diameter and 0.625 inches in length. The slotted design allows the pin to compress during installation and expand to grip the bore wall, creating a secure, removable fastening point without additional hardware. These pins are suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance is needed and precise, repeatable positioning or retention is required. Electricians, plumbers, millwrights, and general trade mechanics install slotted spring pins with standard drift punches and hammer or an arbor press.

Slotted spring pins of this diameter and length are commonly used in small mechanical assemblies, linkages, pivot joints, and shaft-to-hub connections. They are well suited for indoor and outdoor applications where mild corrosion resistance is needed, such as pool equipment linkages, HVAC damper pivot points, valve handles, and similar light mechanical assemblies. This pin does not meet military specifications and is sized for inch-measurement applications.

Key Features

• Slotted spring design compresses on insertion and expands to lock in the bore
• 420 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• Bright finish for clean appearance and dimensional consistency
• 0.125 inch nominal diameter fits standard 1/8 inch bored holes
• 0.625 inch overall length suits shallow retention applications
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard US trade tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for inch-dimensioned bores requiring a 0.125 inch diameter retention pin in light mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by a qualified mechanic or trade professional using a drift punch sized to the pin diameter and a hammer, or an arbor press for controlled insertion. De-energize or lock out any equipment before replacing or installing pins in live assemblies. Do not drive pins into misaligned bores, as this can crack the pin or damage the bore. Remove with a punch driven from the closed end of the pin when applicable.
