To remove these pins, hit the small end with a punch to drive the pin out.

These internally threaded pins sit flush in an assembly. For easy removal from a blind hole, thread a screw into the pin and pull out.

These pins make good hinges or pivots. The grooved half locks pins in position, while the smooth half can act as a pivot. Also known as type H pins.

Quarter-groove pins are well suited for hinges or pivots. The grooved end locks pins in position, while the smooth portion can act as a pivot. Also known as type C pins.

These pins are commonly used as anchors for tension springs. The grooved half locks pins in position, and spring ends fit in to the notch. Also known as type G pins.

Plastic pins are a nonconductive and nonmagnetic alternative to metal dowel pins. Use them as pivots, hinges, shafts, jigs, and fixtures to locate or hold parts.

Oversized to fit worn and enlarged holes, these pins work well as repair and replacement parts.

The flat side of these pins relieves trapped air, making them easier to insert in and remove from blind holes. To remove, thread a screw or tool into the tapped hole, then pull the pin out.

A spiral groove cut into these pins relieves trapped air but stays in 360° contact with the hole for a secure fit that's easy to insert in and remove from blind holes. To remove, thread a screw or tool into the tapped hole, then pull the pin out.

Use these pins to fasten components made of soft materials such as plastic or aluminum. Opposing barbs bite into each piece, pulling them together for a tight, secure fit.

Center-knurled pins are often used in place of clevis pins or to create T-handles. The knurled center locks pins in position, while the smooth ends act as a pivot.

Join two pieces of wood with these dowel pins. When glued, they expand for a tight fit.

Pass wires and other components through these hollow pins.

Also known as round-head Type U drive screws.

Also known as drive rivets, install these anchors by hammering the pin into the body. Pry out the pin to remove.

Also known as drive rivets, install by hammering the screw into the body. Unthread the screw to remove.

Use in applications requiring high strength.

These 316 stainless steel anchors have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.

Dowel pins are commonly used as pivots, hinges, shafts, jigs, and fixtures to locate or hold parts. They're slightly oversized for a tight fit.

Line up holes by driving these pins through existing rivet, pin, and bolt holes in multiple pieces of metal. Alternatively known as lineup taper punches.

Turn the pin and the tapered shaft forces the two holes into alignment.

When one side wears out, use the other one.

The tapered shaft of these pins eliminates the need for hammering and prying when aligning flange bolt holes.

Maintain consistent alignment in mating parts by installing a pin in one part and a liner in the other.

The shoulder provides a consistent height reference point and keeps the pin from being pressed through the fixture.

A slightly undersized shank makes these pins easy to install and replace. Also known as slip-fit and lock-screw locating pins, they are held in place by a separate lock screw.

Precisely align drilled holes in two parts.

Line up two pipe flanges and determine pipe angle with the included nut-and bolt pins, level, and protractor.

Each step on these aligner pins matches common bolt holes on pipe flanges, so they're more precise than conical aligner pins and don’t require nuts. Press the pair of pins into mated flanges to make sure the flanges are aligned.
