Value Collection R63096243 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63096243 is a slotted spring pin machined from 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. It measures 0.1563 inches (5/32 inch) in diameter and 1-1/4 inches in length. Slotted spring pins are radially compressed during installation and exert outward spring force against the bore wall to resist vibration and axial displacement. They are a common fastening solution used by mechanical assemblers and maintenance technicians across industrial, HVAC, and general equipment applications where a removable, self-retaining pin is required.

This pin is suited for light- to medium-duty fastening applications in machinery, linkages, hinges, and rotating assemblies where the bore diameter corresponds to the 0.1563-inch nominal size. The 420 stainless steel construction provides moderate corrosion resistance and higher hardness compared to austenitic grades, making it appropriate for environments where wear resistance and strength are priorities alongside some corrosion protection. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Slotted design compresses radially during installation for a secure, self-retaining fit
• 420 stainless steel construction offers elevated hardness and moderate corrosion resistance
• Bright finish for consistent surface quality
• 5/32 inch (0.1563 inch) nominal diameter for precise bore compatibility
• 1-1/4 inch overall length suitable for a range of assembly thicknesses
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard tooling and gauges

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard stock slotted spring pin for applications requiring a 0.1563-inch diameter pin in inch-dimensioned assemblies. Does not meet military specifications.

Installation Notes

Slotted spring pins are typically installed by mechanical technicians using a pin punch and hammer or a press, ensuring the pin slot is oriented to distribute load appropriately for the application. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before pin removal or installation in any powered assembly. Select a driver or punch that matches the pin diameter to avoid deforming the slot. Inspect the bore for wear or damage before installing a replacement pin to ensure proper retention.
