Value Collection R63093922 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63093922 is a slotted spring pin engineered for secure fastening in mechanical assemblies where vibration resistance and corrosion resistance are priorities. Manufactured from 420 stainless steel with a bright finish, this pin measures 0.1875 inches in diameter and 1 inch in overall length. The slotted design allows the pin to compress during installation, creating a constant radial force against the hole wall that resists loosening under dynamic loads. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals use slotted spring pins as a reliable alternative to solid pins in applications subject to shock or repeated stress.

Slotted spring pins are commonly used in light- to medium-duty mechanical assemblies including linkages, shaft-to-collar connections, hinges, and fixtures. The 420 stainless steel construction provides moderate corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, marine-adjacent, and food-adjacent environments where mild exposure to moisture or cleaning agents is present. The bright finish indicates a non-coated, smooth surface that seats cleanly in drilled holes without additional surface preparation.

Key Features

• 0.1875-inch diameter and 1-inch overall length for compact fastening applications
• 420 stainless steel construction offers moderate corrosion resistance and good hardness
• Slotted design compresses on insertion and exerts constant radial spring force for vibration-resistant retention
• Bright finish provides a clean seating surface with consistent dimensional tolerance
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for standard commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for general commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.1875-inch pin diameter in the inch measurement system.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are installed by machinists or mechanical assembly technicians using a pin punch and hammer or a press. The receiving hole should be drilled to the appropriate tolerance for the nominal pin diameter to ensure proper retention force. Always de-energize and lock out any machinery before removing or installing drive or linkage pins. Avoid reusing pins that show visible deformation, cracking, or corrosion, as the spring retention properties may be compromised.
