Value Collection SF043013 Dowel Pin 12x60mm Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SF043013 is a flat vent pull out dowel pin manufactured from alloy steel to DIN 7979D standards. At 12 mm in diameter and 60 mm in overall length, it delivers precise locating performance in tooling, fixtures, and machined assemblies. The pin features one rounded end and one threaded end, allowing controlled extraction without damage to the mating bore. Surface hardness is rated at 57-63 HRC, providing the wear resistance required in high-cycle industrial and production environments. This pin is sold individually and is handled by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and mechanical assemblers working with close-tolerance locating applications.

This dowel pin is suited for use in precision machined components, mold bases, jigs, and fixture plates where repeatable alignment is critical. The flat vent design allows air and lubricant to escape during press-fit installation, reducing hydraulic lock and minimizing the risk of bore damage. The DIN 7979D standard ensures dimensional conformance for interchangeability in European and metric-spec tooling systems. It is appropriate for both light production assembly and heavy-duty fixture work requiring a removable, hardened locating element.

Key Features

• DIN 7979D standard for dimensional conformance in metric tooling systems
• 57-63 HRC surface hardness for wear resistance in high-cycle applications
• Flat vent design prevents hydraulic lock during press-fit installation
• One rounded end and one threaded end for controlled pull-out extraction
• Alloy steel construction for strength and durability in industrial environments

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7979D-compliant replacement or service pin for metric tooling, fixture plates, mold bases, and jigs requiring a 12 mm diameter flat vent pull out dowel pin.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tool-and-die technician using appropriate press equipment sized for the bore and pin diameter. Ensure the mating bore is clean, dimensioned to specification, and free of burrs before pressing the pin. The threaded end is intended for use with a puller or extraction tool — do not drive the pin out from the threaded end using impact force. Follow applicable machine safety lockout procedures before servicing any fixture or assembly containing this pin.
