Value Collection SF043069 Precision Dowel Pin 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SF043069 is a precision dowel pin manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. This pin measures 0.125 inches in diameter and 0.375 inches in overall length, with a tight diameter tolerance of 0.0002 inches for accurate, repeatable alignment in close-tolerance assemblies. Both ends are beveled to ease insertion into drilled or reamed holes. Conforming to ASME B18.8.2, it is suited for machinists, toolmakers, maintenance technicians, and industrial assembly professionals who require consistent dimensional accuracy and corrosion resistance in a small fastener.

This dowel pin is used wherever precise component alignment is required in mechanical assemblies, jigs, fixtures, dies, and tooling. The Grade 316 stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard 18-8 grades, making it appropriate for wet environments, food-processing equipment, marine applications, and chemical exposure situations. The small 0.125-inch diameter makes it well suited for compact assemblies where space is limited and alignment precision is critical.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion and chloride resistance
• Diameter tolerance of plus or minus 0.0002 inches for close-fit precision alignment
• Beveled ends for easy insertion into drilled or reamed holes
• Bright, uncoated finish with no plating to affect dimensional accuracy
• Meets ASME B18.8.2 dimensional standard
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds per piece, suitable for high-density assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision alignment component for use in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, jigs, and tooling applications requiring a 0.125-inch diameter, 0.375-inch length dowel pin conforming to ASME B18.8.2.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a press or mallet with appropriate drift punches. Mating holes should be drilled and reamed to the correct tolerance class per ASME B18.8.2 before installation. Never force a pin into an undersized or unreamed hole, as this can damage the pin or the workpiece. Ensure all components are properly supported and secured before pressing the pin into position.
