Core Pins
Mold plastic around these pins to form small holes, or use them to perforate parts. They have a flat head to fit into a counterbored hole. Pins can be machined to fit your application. They're precision-ground to tight tolerances. Made of M2 tool steel, these pins are wear resistant and stay sharp at high temperatures.

Coiled Spring Pins
These spiral pins remain flexible after installation, so they absorb shock and vibration better than slotted spring pins. They work well in holes that are out of round. Use them for fastening, pivoting, and holding.
Squeeze pins closed and install them in a hole. Tension holds them tight against the hole wall. The chamfered ends aid insertion.
Breaking strength is measured as double shear, which is the force required to break a pin into three pieces.
18-8 stainless steel pins resist corrosion better than 420 stainless steel pins. They may be mildly magnetic.
420 stainless steel pins resist wear as well as corrosion. They are magnetic.
Passivated pins offer added protection against corrosion and oxidation.
Inch pins meet ASME B18.8.2 specifications for material and dimensions.
