1/4 x 7/8 Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pin is used when mating parts need repeatable location instead of relying on bolts for alignment. A correctly sized reamed hole lets the dowel become the alignment reference, leaving screws and bolts to provide clamp force.

Common uses include jigs and fixtures, locating nests, and drill fixtures, where the pin establishes position and nearby screws provide clamp force. Alloy Steel Socket Head Cap Screws and Stripper Bolts are natural clamping and guiding partners around a dowel-located joint.

Cold Headers helps toolrooms, maintenance teams, and industrial distributors locate hard-to-find dowel pin sizes. Review the nominal diameter, measured pin range, recommended hole size, end form, and length before matching this dowel pin to an assembly.
