Value Collection R63093442 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63093442 is a slotted spring pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a reliable, compressible fastening solution. Measuring 0.25 inches in diameter and 1.25 inches in length, this pin is manufactured from Grade 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. The slotted design allows the pin to compress during installation and exert radial pressure against the host bore, locking components in alignment. This type of fastener is commonly installed by machinists, maintenance mechanics, and millwrights working on shafts, linkages, and machinery housings.

Slotted spring pins are used across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications where a self-retaining pin is needed to secure two components in a fixed positional relationship. Common install scenarios include shaft-to-hub alignment, pivot joints, and gear or lever assemblies in both light and heavy industrial equipment. The inch-system dimensioning makes this pin suitable for standard domestic machinery and tooling applications.

Key Features

• Grade 420 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance and moderate hardness
• Bright finish provides a clean surface suitable for close-tolerance bore fits
• Slotted design allows radial compression for self-retaining installation without adhesive or threading
• Inch-system dimensions for compatibility with standard domestic tooling and gauging
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.25-inch diameter inch-series pin in a 1.25-inch length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or maintenance mechanic using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. The receiving bore should be drilled or reamed to the appropriate tolerance for a slotted spring pin of this diameter before installation. Power down and de-energize all equipment before servicing any assembly containing this pin. Never drive this pin with excessive force into an undersized bore, as this can damage the bore or deform the pin beyond its functional spring range.
