   Locating and Fixturing Pins       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Search All Locating and Fixturing Pins
 
     When selected will return all locating pins and fixturing or aligning pins in this dropdown list.
 
   Bullet-nose Dowel
 
     Bullet-nose dowels are precision locating pins with a long tapered nose that are often used with a mating bushing, or liner.  They are similar to bullet-nose pins, but with a smaller locating shoulder.
 
   Bullet-nose Pin
 
     Available with either a short, round or diamond tip, bullet-nose pins are used to align two pieces of a fixture.  They are used with a mating bushing, or liner, that has a precision fit with the nose of the pin.  Round and diamond bullet-nose pins are frequently used together.  In these cases, the round pin is the primary, 2-axis locator and the diamond pin is the secondary, 1-axis locator.
 
   Clamping Pin
 
     Clamping pins are used for clamping materials of varying thicknesses by adjusting a collar or bushing and brazing it in position.
 
   Cone Locator Pin
 
     Cone locator pins are similar to round and diamond locating pins, but with cone shaped tips.  They are used with a mating bushing, or liner, for medium-accuracy location.  They can compensate for a great deal of misalignment.
 
   Diamond Locating Pin
 
     Diamond locating pins have a 4-flat, diamond shaped tip and are used to accurately locate a part, often in conjunction with a round pin.  Diamond pins have either a small or large locating shoulder.
 
   Drift Pin
 
     Drift pins are tapered pins used to align holes in members that are to be bolted together.
 
   Floating Locating Pin
 
     Floating locating pins are very similar in function to diamond pins. They are used to provide precise 1-axis location while floating in the perpendicular axis. They are usually used in conjunction with a round pin to locate in 2 axes.
 
   Indexing / Pop Pin
 
     Indexing pins, also called pop pins, are spring-loaded pins, usually with a knob or handle for gripping for easy installation and removal.  They may be threaded or nonthreaded.
 
   L-Pin
 
     L-pins are removable alignment or locating pins with an "L" shaped handle at one end. 
 
   Quick Release Pin
 
     Ball lock pins quick release pins have spring loaded steel balls that provide a positive lock.  A button, or other actuating device, unlocks the balls for easy removal.
 
   Round Locating Pin
 
     Round locating pins have a round, tapered tip and are used to accurately locate a part, often in conjunction with a diamond pin.  Round pins have either a small or large locating shoulder.
 
   T-Pin
 
     T-pins are removable alignment or locating pins with a "T" shaped handle at one end.

   Length
 
     The length of the pin.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
Material




   Material       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Aluminum
 
     A bluish silver-white malleable ductile light trivalent metallic element that has good electrical and thermal conductivity, high reflectivity, and resistance to oxidation.
 
   Brass
 
     Brass comes with good strength, excellent high temperature ductility and reasonable cold ductility, good conductivity, excellent corrosion resistance, good bearing properties and low magnetic permeability.
 
   Plastic
 
     Any of numerous organic, synthetic, or processed materials that are mostly thermoplastic or thermosetting polymers of high molecular weight and that can be made into objects, films, or filaments.
 
   Steel, Hardened and Ground
 
     Hardened and ground carbon steel pins.  Steel may be hardened in a number of ways, including a variety of quenching techniques in oil and water, being passed through induction chambers, etc. Quickly cooling steel during processing freezes, traps and packs the carbon atoms inside the shrunken iron crystals, thereby producing a very hard and brittle metal. Although very hard, it cannot absorb much shock or impact without breaking.
 
   Steel, Unhardened
 
     Unhardened carbon steel pins.  A commercial iron that contains carbon in any amount up to about 1.7 percent as an essential alloying constituent. It is malleable when under suitable conditions, and is distinguished from cast iron by its malleability and lower carbon content.
 
   Stainless Steel
 
     Stainless steel is chemical and corrosion resistant and can have relatively high pressure ratings.
 
   Titanium
 
     Titanium is a silver-white metal used primarily to make light, strong alloys with good temperature and corrosion resistance.  Titanium alloys weigh approximately 44% less than stainless or alloy steels.
 
   Wood
 
     Pins manufactured from wood, typically a hard wood such as white birch.
