Manufactured from alloy steel at Grade 8, this pin measures 3\/8 inch in diameter and 2.25 inches in overall length. It meets ASME B18.8.2 dimensional standards and carries a hardness rating of 50-58 HRC, making it suited for high-load, tight-tolerance applications. One end is beveled for guided insertion; the other end is rounded. The diameter tolerance is held to 0.0002 inches, supporting precision fit in close-tolerance bored holes. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dowel pin is used in jigs, fixtures, molds, dies, and machine bases where repeatable part alignment is required. It is appropriate for both original equipment manufacturing and maintenance-and-repair operations across industrial, automotive, and aerospace tooling contexts. The pin is sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of 10 to meet the minimum order quantity requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction, Grade 8 material for high strength and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50-58 HRC hardness rating for use in demanding, high-load assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for tight, repeatable fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne beveled end and one rounded end for easier alignment and insertion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B18.8.2 fastener standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-shear breaking strength of 28,700 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision locating pin for mechanical assemblies requiring a 3\/8-inch diameter dowel conforming to ASME B18.8.2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or maintenance mechanics using a press or mallet with a proper driver; never strike the pin surface directly with a steel hammer. Ensure the receiving bore is clean, within specified tolerance, and free of burrs before pressing the pin. Degrease mating surfaces as required by the assembly specification. Removal should be performed with a pin press or punch sized appropriately to avoid bore damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50-58 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: One beveled, one rounded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreaking Strength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28,700 pounds (double shear)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B18.8.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31163203\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: SF043050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723137417522,"sku":"SF043050","price":1662.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f5999c309d6fb781ceabf217d134775a.jpg?v=1788601125","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-sf043050-precision-dowel-pin-3-8-alloy-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
