1/16 x 1 3/8 Tension Pin (Slotted Spring Pin) is a hollow, headless spring pin with a slot running along its length. In search and purchasing records, this part may be called a tension pin, slotted spring pin, or roll pin. Compared with a dowel-pin fit, the tension pin is usually chosen when economical retention matters more than tenths-level location.

Common uses include machine handles, knob shafts, and operator controls, where the pin retains parts without a threaded fastener. For blind holes where removal access matters, Pull Dowel Pins are the related locating-pin option to review.
