3/8 x 3/16 18-8 Stainless Steel Standard Dowel Pin is a corrosion-resistant replacement option for standard dowel locations where carbon steel has caused staining or seizure.

Instrument housings, small fixtures, and inspection nests use standard dowels to keep datum surfaces repeatable through removal and reassembly. For dry service where a hardened pin is specified, review Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pins instead of substituting stainless. Use the nominal diameter, tolerance band, and length together; the dowel sets location while separate fasteners provide clamping force.

Cold Headers can quote non-catalog diameters and lengths when the drawing calls for a stainless dowel outside the standard listed range.
