1/16 x 5 Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pin is a precision ground pin for assemblies that need controlled press-fit location. A correctly sized reamed hole lets the dowel become the alignment reference, leaving screws and bolts to provide clamp force.
This size is often reviewed for indexing plates, locating plates, and assembly tooling when a drawing calls for standard-series press-fit dowels. For corrosion resistance, compare 18-8 Stainless Steel Standard Dowel Pins rather than treating bare heat treated steel as a corrosion-resistant choice.
Cold Headers has supplied specialty industrial fasteners since 1962 and supports exact-size dowel pin sourcing. Review the nominal diameter, measured pin range, recommended hole size, end form, and length before matching this dowel pin to an assembly.
