Pins

Grooved Pins

Grooved pins feature longitudinal flutes swaged into their solid shanks, which compress elastically upon insertion into standard drilled holes. This radial expansion generates constant outward tension that strongly resists shock and high-frequency vibration without the need for precision reaming. They are frequently utilized as fulcrum pins, retaining elements, and locating shafts in automotive brake systems, valves, and material handling equipment.
