3/16 x 2 1/2 Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pin provides the fixed reference used around clamps, screws, and guided tooling hardware. A correctly sized reamed hole lets the dowel become the alignment reference, leaving screws and bolts to provide clamp force.

For machine frame alignment, mounting plates, or machined bases, confirm the reamed hole condition, pin diameter, and length before release to production or repair. Pull Dowel Pins add a tapped end for removal from blind holes when the die or fixture cannot be flipped.

Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped buyers match specialty fasteners to drawings, repair records, and production requirements. Review the nominal diameter, measured pin range, recommended hole size, end form, and length before matching this dowel pin to an assembly.
