1/16 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 0.066-0.069 in. against a recommended hole of 0.062-0.065 in., so the oversize is intentional.
This size is often reviewed for replacement assemblies, legacy equipment, and maintenance repairs when a self-retaining driven pin is specified. For blind holes where removal access matters, Pull Dowel Pins are the related locating-pin option to review.
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.
