Value Collection R63096122 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63096122 is a slotted spring pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies where controlled radial flexibility and secure retention are required. Measuring 0.1563 inches in diameter and 7/8 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, then expand to grip the bore wall, resisting vibration-induced loosening. It is a standard inch-system fastener suited for light to medium-duty retention applications in fabricated assemblies and machined components.

Slotted spring pins of this size are commonly used in general mechanical, industrial, and light-duty machinery applications. They are installed where a removable or semi-permanent pivot, hinge, or positional retention point is needed. The 420 stainless steel construction provides moderate corrosion resistance, making this pin appropriate for indoor industrial environments or applications with occasional moisture exposure. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals typically work with this fastener type during equipment fabrication, repair, or overhaul.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses on insertion for a secure interference fit in the bore
• Grade 420 stainless steel provides moderate corrosion resistance and good hardness
• Bright finish for consistent surface quality and dimensional accuracy
• Inch-system sizing at 5/32 inches (0.1563 inches) diameter for compatibility with standard imperial-dimensioned bores
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-system slotted spring pin for use in commercial and industrial mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.1563-inch diameter retention pin.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press — never use impact force in a way that could deform the receiving bore. Power down and de-energize any equipment before servicing components that incorporate these pins. Ensure the receiving bore is clean, free of burrs, and dimensioned to the correct tolerance for the pin diameter before installation. Removal is performed with a punch sized smaller than the pin diameter to drive it clear of the bore.
