3/16 x 2 3/4 Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pin is a precision locating pin for assemblies where screws clamp and dowels locate. A correctly sized reamed hole lets the dowel become the alignment reference, leaving screws and bolts to provide clamp force.

Common uses include indexing plates, locating plates, and assembly tooling, where the pin establishes position and nearby screws provide clamp force. For corrosion resistance, compare 18-8 Stainless Steel Standard Dowel Pins rather than treating bare heat treated steel as a corrosion-resistant choice.

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.
