Value Collection R63096261 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63096261 is a slotted spring pin designed for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a compressed, self-retaining fastener. The slotted design allows the pin to compress on insertion and exert radial pressure against the bore wall, creating a secure fit without adhesives or secondary locking features. Manufactured from 420 stainless steel with a bright finish, this pin measures 0.1875 inches in diameter and 3/8 inch in length. It is suited for applications where corrosion resistance and moderate strength are both priorities. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assembly professionals install these pins in production and repair settings.

Slotted spring pins of this size are commonly used in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies, including linkages, hinges, shafts, and bracket assemblies found in industrial equipment, HVAC hardware, plumbing fixtures, and general fabrication. The 420 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for moist or mildly corrosive environments. The 0.1875 inch diameter and 3/8 inch length make this pin appropriate for compact assemblies with limited pin bore depth. This item is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Key Features

• Slotted design allows radial compression for a self-retaining fit in bored holes
• 420 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and moderate hardness
• Bright finish for clean, consistent surface condition
• 0.1875 inch diameter fits standard 3/16 inch nominal bore applications
• 3/8 inch overall length suits shallow-bore and compact assembly applications
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard US tooling and gauges

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.1875 inch diameter pin bore and up to 3/8 inch pin depth.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical or maintenance technicians using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Always de-energize and lock out any equipment before inserting or removing spring pins from operating assemblies. Ensure the bore diameter matches the pin diameter specification to allow proper compression and retention. Do not reuse spring pins that have been removed, as repeated compression cycling can reduce retention force.
