5/64 x 5/8 Tension Pin (Slotted Spring Pin) helps retain mating parts through spring force against the hole wall. Tension pin, slotted spring pin, and roll pin describe the same slotted self-retaining pin style. The published OD range of 0.083-0.086 in. is larger than the 0.078-0.081 in. recommended hole range by design.

This size is often reviewed for handles, knobs, and control levers when a self-retaining driven pin is specified. When the design requires repeatable precision location, compare Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pins with a reamed hole and ground pin.

Cold Headers supports hard-to-find pin sourcing, including uncommon lengths and exact diameter-length combinations. Review the verified OD, hole-size, shear, and length-tolerance data before matching this pin to a drawing or service record.
