Value Collection R63090841 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63090841 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from grade 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. Slotted spring pins, also called roll pins, are cylindrical fasteners with a longitudinal slot that allows the pin to compress during installation and exert outward spring force against the hole wall, locking the pin in place without adhesive or secondary hardware. This pin measures 0.125 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches in length. It is sized to the inch measurement system and does not meet military specifications. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and mechanical assemblers install these pins in light to medium-duty fastening and alignment applications.

Slotted spring pins in this diameter and length range are commonly used in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies, light machinery, linkages, and equipment subassemblies where a removable yet secure pin connection is required. Grade 420 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance suitable for mildly corrosive or wash-down environments. The bright finish indicates no additional coating has been applied, which is appropriate where dimensional precision must be maintained or where the installation environment does not warrant plated finishes.

Key Features

• Grade 420 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in mildly corrosive service environments
• Slotted design allows radial compression during installation, creating a secure interference fit without adhesives
• Bright finish maintains close dimensional tolerances for precision-fit applications
• 0.125 inch (1/8 inch) nominal diameter with 1.5 inch overall length
• Does not meet military specifications — suitable for standard commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard commercial slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies, linkages, and equipment components requiring a 0.125 inch diameter pin hole and 1.5 inch pin engagement length.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by mechanical assemblers or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always ensure the receiving hole diameter is within the specified tolerance range for the pin diameter before installation. Wear appropriate eye protection during driving operations, as compressed pins can release stored energy if mishandled. To remove, drive the pin through the bore using a punch of appropriate diameter.
