1/8 x 9/16 Tension Pin (Slotted Spring Pin) is intended for driven installation where the slot closes as the pin enters the hole. Tension pin, slotted spring pin, and roll pin describe the same slotted self-retaining pin style. As the pin enters the hole, the slotted wall compresses and the spring steel reacts outward against the hole surface.

Common uses include simple joints replacing taper pins, retaining stops, and service fixtures, where the pin retains parts without a threaded fastener. Where stainless material and precision location are both required, 18-8 Stainless Steel Standard Dowel Pins may fit the drawing better.

Cold Headers has supplied specialty fasteners since 1962 and helps buyers confirm exact pin sizes for maintenance or production requirements. Review the verified OD, hole-size, shear, and length-tolerance data before matching this pin to a drawing or service record.
