5/16 x 2 18-8 Stainless Steel Standard Dowel Pin provides a stainless locating element for fixtures that must hold repeatable position through routine washdown and moisture exposure.
Pharma and cleanroom tooling can specify stainless dowel pins where clean material policy and repeatable fixture location are both important. Tension Pins serve a different role, using spring action in looser holes rather than a ground cylindrical press fit. Use the nominal diameter, tolerance band, and length together; the dowel sets location while separate fasteners provide clamping force.
For hard-to-find stainless dowel pin sizes, Cold Headers can help locate exact diameters and lengths used in older equipment and rebuild projects.
