When a standard pin can no longer maintain interference, the 5/16 x 2 0.001 Oversize Dowel Pin provides a controlled repair-size alternative. The oversize series is useful when the original hole position must remain fixed and the assembly still needs a press-fit locating pin.
Refit work after a seized pin was extracted can use this family when the old standard-size fit has been damaged. Review the nominal diameter, actual oversize diameter range, length tolerance, end style, material, and ASME series before substituting a standard pin.
Cold Headers can help source the requested nominal size, oversize series, length, and heat treated steel material for the job. Tension Pins are the related economical option when retention in a drilled hole is enough and precision-ground location is not required.
