For a number of years now, we have been supplying Spring Tension Pins to DIN 1481 (ISO 8752) Standard.
These pins are also known as Roll pins or Sellock pins.
The Spring Pin has many advantages as a fastener some of which are listed below:
Replacement for Solid Pins, Taper Pins, Cotter Pins, Split Pins, threaded items and many other methods of fastening previously used.
Excellent shear strength properties – Tests show that Spring Tension pins to be approximately 10% stronger as well as 10% lighter than that of mild steel solid pins.
With diameters slightly larger than that of the hole size they provide a tight spring fit into the hole providing a tight grip along the pins length.
By virtue of their design they offer constant on-going pressure making them resistant to vibration.
Costs are reduced by the elimination of reaming and threading. Simply drill and insert.
Pin shear strength can be increased further by inserting one pin inside another.
Our Spring tension Pins are available in both Carbon Steel and Stainless Steel.
