Introduction
Spring-Loaded Locating Pin is a high-elasticity steel cylinder used for precision parts positioning and permanent vibration-proof fastening.
Key Features
Flexible Fit
The pin's outer diameter is intentionally 0.2–0.5mm larger than the hole; it compresses during entry to fill all gaps for a zero-shake fit.
High Strength
Heat-treated 40Cr steel (HRC 42–50) creates a solid core that withstands high-tonnage lateral shear without bending or breaking.
Anti-Fatigue Performance
High-carbon spring steel keeps its "memory"; it snaps back to its original width after removal, maintaining full grip tension for years.
Anti-Loosening Grip
Constant outward radial pressure creates powerful friction against the hole wall, locking the pin dead in place even under extreme machine vibration.
