Holo-Krome 01020 1/8" x 2" Alloy Steel Dowel Pin Black Luster Finish (Pack of 100)

The Holo-Krome 01020 is a precision-ground, standard dowel pin measuring 1/8" diameter x 2" overall length, sold in a convenient pack of 100. Dowel pins are designed to achieve maximum holding power in assemblies where parts must be accurately positioned and held in absolute relation to one another. All Holo-Krome products are Made in the USA and used in a wide variety of market applications which demand high quality, high strength precision components.

Key Features:

• Material: Made from high-grade alloy steel, heat treated for a wear-resistant surface (HRC 60 min) and tough core (HRC 47–58) for impact, with a shear strength of 150,000 psi minimum.
• Precision Ground: True-round diameter precision ground on centerless grinders to an 8 RMS microinch surface finish, with diameter held to a tolerance of ±.0001" from end to end.
• Finish Diameter: .0002" over nominal ±.0001" with a surface finish of 8 micro inches maximum and case depth of .020"–.030" (1/8" diameter and up).
• Controlled Radius: Controlled radius resists mushrooming during assembly.
• Point Chamfer: Point chamfer accurately held — permits easier insertion and starting without marring exteriors.
• Black Luster Finish: Black luster finish retards corrosion and rusting of the highly polished surface.

Common Applications:

• Widely used as plug gages in production operations and as guide pins, stops, wrist pins, hinges, and shafts. Also used as position locators on indexing machines, as feeler gages in assembly work, as valves and valve plungers on hydraulic equipment, as fasteners for laminated sections and machine parts, and as roller bearings in casters and truck wheels.
• Serve definite and important functions in holding parts in alignment by absorbing side pressures and lateral thrusts, while facilitating quick disassembly and re-assembly in their exact relationship.

Installation Note: Holo-Krome recommends dowel pins be inserted by application of constant pressure, with the pin shielded in case of fracture. A striking force can cause the pin to shatter. Always use an arbor press for installation.

This pack of 100 pins offers excellent value for production environments, tool rooms, machine shops, and precision assembly operations requiring consistent, reliable locating hardware.
