1/4 x 3 3/4 Tension Pin (Slotted Spring Pin) is a roll pin for assemblies where self-retention and simple drilled-hole preparation matter. The slotted construction is the reason this same fastener is commonly indexed as a spring pin or roll pin. A normal drilled hole at production tolerance is typically the economic advantage over precision reamed dowel-pin holes.

For agricultural equipment linkages, outdoor mechanisms, or repair assemblies, check the drilled-hole range, pin length, and access for driving the pin squarely. If the joint must locate parts precisely rather than retain them economically, a dowel pin is usually the product family to check.

Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped industrial buyers locate specialty pin and socket-product configurations. Review the verified OD, hole-size, shear, and length-tolerance data before matching this pin to a drawing or service record.
