Value Collection R63096162 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63096162 is a slotted spring pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies where a removable, load-bearing fastener is required. Measuring 0.1563 inches (5/32 inch) in diameter and 1 inch in overall length, this pin is manufactured from 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. The slotted design allows the pin to compress on insertion and exert outward spring force against the bore wall, creating a secure, vibration-resistant connection. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install these pins in shafts, hinges, linkages, and similar mechanical components across industrial and commercial applications.

This slotted spring pin is suited for use in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency are required. The 420 stainless steel construction provides adequate resistance to moisture and mild corrosive environments. Typical applications include shaft-to-hub connections, pivot points, and index pin installations in machinery, equipment frames, and fabricated assemblies. The inch-system sizing makes it compatible with standard fractional-dimension bores common in North American equipment design.

Key Features

• 0.1563 inches (5/32 inch) diameter for compatibility with standard fractional bores
• 1 inch overall length suits shallow to mid-depth bore applications
• 420 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in moist or mild chemical environments
• Bright finish supports visual inspection and dimensional verification during installation
• Slotted spring design compresses on insertion and exerts radial holding force without adhesives or threads
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-system slotted spring pin for use in any mechanical assembly requiring a 0.1563-inch diameter bore fastener. Consult bore tolerance specifications to confirm fit before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or a press. Confirm bore diameter and depth before driving the pin to avoid deformation or splitting. Always wear eye protection when driving pins. To remove, use a correctly sized punch to drive the pin through or back out of the bore without damaging the surrounding material.
