Value Collection R63094266 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63094266 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. Slotted spring pins are hollow, cylindrical fasteners with a lengthwise slot that allows radial compression during installation. This compression creates a secure interference fit inside a drilled hole without threads or adhesives. Measuring 7/8 inches in overall length and 1/16 inch in diameter, this pin is designed for light-duty retention and alignment applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install these pins in metal fabrication, machine assembly, and mechanical repair work.

This slotted spring pin is suited for applications requiring corrosion resistance combined with spring-action retention. The 420 stainless steel construction provides moderate corrosion resistance and good hardness, making it appropriate for environments where mild moisture or chemical exposure is a factor. Typical uses include shaft retention, hinge pinning, alignment of mating components, and similar light mechanical assemblies. The bright finish indicates no additional coating or plating, leaving the base stainless steel surface exposed.

Key Features

• 420 stainless steel construction for moderate corrosion resistance and spring temper hardness
• Slotted design allows radial compression for a secure interference fit in standard drilled holes
• Bright finish — no additional plating or coating applied
• 7/8 inch overall length suits compact assembly applications
• 1/16 inch diameter for fine-scale retention and alignment tasks
• Does not meet military specifications — suited for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 1/16 inch diameter hole and 7/8 inch pin length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press — select a punch diameter slightly smaller than the pin outer diameter to avoid deforming the slot. Ensure the receiving hole is drilled to the correct nominal diameter per standard interference-fit tolerances for slotted spring pins. Wear eye protection during installation. To remove, drive the pin through with a punch or use a pin extractor to avoid damaging the bore.
