Product Information
Spring Locating Pins are press-fit inserts that provide an extremely compact way to apply side force to a workpiece, for positioning or light clamping. The version shown here, with a case-hardened steel contact pin and a coil spring, is our most popular. A protective rubber seal around the contact pin keeps out dirt and chips. This type has the most travel, so it allows the most part-size variation.Available in fives sizes from 1/4" to 5/8" body diameter. Choice of light, medium, or heavy force in each size.
