21 08 2020 nbsp 0183 32 The common types of mechanical fastening pin include Dowel pin A dowel pin is simply a cylinder of solid material which is inserted through a hole Typically the hole has Slotted pin This is a pin formed from sheet material rolled into a partial cylinder with a chamfer at each end The Machine threaded fasteners with a wide domed head The head has fins underneath that prevent the bolt from spinning during installation Typically used in wood Cotter Pins Cotter or split pins have two tines which are bent apart to hold them in place Hex Flange A hex head with built in flange Slotted Hex Washer A hex head with built inPins and keys are primarily used to transmit torque and to prevent axial motion In engineering practice the following types of pins are generally used a Round pins b Taper pins c Dowel pins d Split pins Round and taper pins are simple cylindrical pins with or without a taper and they offer effective means of fastening pulleys gears Ball and Cotter Double Locking Quick Release Pins These pins lock in place until you push the button to release the spring loaded retaining balls and can also be secured with a cotter pin for longer term holding Two step locking prevents accidental removal 04 02 2022 nbsp 0183 32 A cotter pin locks a gear shaft in place Image Credit Dan Logan Shutterstock com Machine pins also referred to as pin fasteners or fastening pins are a type of specialty fastener employed to properly align and join together two parts or components Available in semi permanent and quick release models installation and removal for these fasteners may
It could be of carbon steel stainless steel alloy steel etc there are varieties of them because of having high degree of formability durability tensile strength and coped with relatively inexpensive to fabricate It is generally processed with zinc or chromium plating 1 Carbon Steel Fasteners Types of pins – clevis cotter hairpin cotter Clevis pins Clevis pins are used in a clevis and they are usually held in place by cotter pins Cotter pins Cotter pins are used to keep parts in position A cotter pin has a round head and ends that are bent after assembly to be locked in position Spring pins have an expandable diameter that assumes the diameter of the insertion hole It is a type of self retaining fastener alike to an expanding diameter pin a type of specialty pin Shear pins another type of specialty pin have functions that are commonly filled by cotter pins Production Pin manufacturing depends on the type of material 21 03 2021 nbsp 0183 32 The Most Common Types of Fasteners Mechanical fasteners come in different types Each of those types also has many subtypes that you can choose from Among the different types of fasteners here are the most common ones Their design allows the insertion of pins through their notches They are best used where there are low torque requirements 183 25 05 2019 nbsp 0183 32 Industrial pins come in many types and are used for a wide range of applications their primary use is to align couple or assemble two components Here we have listed several types of industrial pins their uses and applications Grooved Pins Groove pins are parallel and come with three equally spaced grooves which allow itself to be pressed into the cylindrical
