3/8 x 15/16 Tension Pin (Slotted Spring Pin) is built around the slotted spring-pin principle: free diameter larger than the recommended hole. The slotted construction is the reason this same fastener is commonly indexed as a spring pin or roll pin. The slot accommodates the difference between the 0.385-0.395 in. free OD and the smaller 0.375-0.382 in. hole.

For lever assemblies, actuator links, or retaining collars, check the drilled-hole range, pin length, and access for driving the pin squarely. When the design requires repeatable precision location, compare Heat Treated Steel Standard Dowel Pins with a reamed hole and ground pin.

Cold Headers has supplied specialty fasteners since 1962 and helps buyers confirm exact pin sizes for maintenance or production requirements. Review the verified OD, hole-size, shear, and length-tolerance data before matching this pin to a drawing or service record.
