3/32 x 1 1/2 Tension Pin (Slotted Spring Pin) uses spring action to hold itself in a prepared hole without an added head. In search and purchasing records, this part may be called a tension pin, slotted spring pin, or roll pin. For this diameter, the free OD is 0.099-0.103 in. against a recommended hole of 0.094-0.097 in., so the oversize is intentional.

This size is often reviewed for electronics assemblies, appliance hardware, and light mechanical frames when a self-retaining driven pin is specified. For worn precision holes, 0.001 Oversize Dowel Pins may be the better repair path than using a spring pin.

Cold Headers can assist when drawings, service records, and replacement needs call for an exact spring pin size. Review the verified OD, hole-size, shear, and length-tolerance data before matching this pin to a drawing or service record.
