Hillman Plain Steel Tapered Alignment Taper Pins, No. 2/0 x 1 In, 12 Pk

Product Description Hillman Taper Pins lock two parts in exact alignment and hold them together, and they are the preferred choice where absolute positioning is required and a joint has to be taken apart and reassembled precisely. Each pin is a steel rod with one end slightly larger in diameter than the other, made to seat in a matching tapered hole. Sized 2/0 by one inch, the pin drives into a reamed tapered hole and wedges firmly against the walls for a tight, self-holding grip that will not rattle loose. Because the fit is a wedge rather than a press, the pin also backs out cleanly when the parts need to separate, and it drops right back into the same hole in the same position afterward. Made from high-quality steel with a plain finish, the pin resists rust and holds its precise fit under load. It releases easily without galling in soft-plate applications, so a pin and its hole keep locating parts accurately through many cycles of assembly, service, and reassembly rather than wearing loose or seizing. Use these taper pins for locating gears, couplings, levers, and machine parts that must line up exactly and be serviced often. Ream the hole to the matching taper for the best fit, and drive the pin snug. This twelve-piece pack keeps plenty on hand for machinist, equipment, restoration, and general mechanical repair projects around the shop and farm.
