3/16 x 2 1/4 Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pin is specified when a standard dowel pin must seat firmly in a nominal reamed hole. The pin is made slightly large by design; the press fit comes from the relationship between the ground pin and the prepared hole.

This size is often reviewed for jigs and fixtures, locating nests, and drill fixtures when a drawing calls for standard-series press-fit dowels. For worn or re-reamed holes, 0.001 Oversize Dowel Pins are the repair companion to standard pins used for initial installation.

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.
