Value Collection R63098024 Slotted Spring Pin 420 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63098024 is a slotted spring pin manufactured from grade 420 stainless steel with a bright finish. At 2.5 inches long and 0.375 inches in diameter, this pin is designed to secure components by compressing during insertion and expanding against the bore wall to resist axial and rotational movement. The slotted design allows the pin to flex under load, distributing stress along the slot rather than concentrating it at a single point. Grade 420 stainless steel provides good corrosion resistance and hardness, making it well suited for industrial, mechanical, and assembly applications where exposure to moisture or mild chemicals is a concern.

Slotted spring pins are used across a wide range of mechanical assemblies, including shafts, linkages, hinges, and structural connections. This pin is appropriate for general industrial maintenance, machine repair, and component assembly work. It is sized to inch standards and is suitable for applications requiring a press-fit retaining pin in moderate load environments. Tradespeople and maintenance technicians installing or replacing fasteners in mechanical equipment will find this pin a direct fit where a 0.375-inch bore diameter and 2.5-inch engagement length are specified.

Key Features

• Grade 420 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and hardness
• Slotted design distributes compression stress and accommodates slight bore variation
• Bright finish for clean appearance and dimensional consistency
• 2.5-inch overall length suits medium-depth fastening applications
• 0.375-inch diameter fits standard inch-measurement bore specifications
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard tooling and gauges

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series slotted spring pin for use in mechanical assemblies, shafts, and linkages requiring a 0.375-inch diameter press-fit retaining pin with a 2.5-inch engagement length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians and machinists using a pin punch and hammer or an arbor press. Ensure the bore is clean and free of burrs before driving the pin. De-energize and lock out any equipment before servicing components that contain spring pins. Do not reuse a spring pin that has been fully compressed or deformed, as fatigue failure may occur.
