Jeff, Do you want spring pins, or dowel pins, I have seen spring pins used, and I have several 1/16 spring pins that I can send you. What length?

Dowel pins for Emmons SKH

Post by Jeff Savage »

the machinist that made the fingers said that I need 1/2" x 0.625" ...he said case hardened steel...most anyone that knows about steels would know more than I do...but if they would work I'd buy some from you, thanks, I really appreciate your help.

Dowel pins for Emmons SKH

JEFF Just to inform you, 1/16 is .0625. Not 0.625 as you posted, That is 5/8". That decimal in the wrong place could cause you some grief. Good Luck on this project.

Mike Cass. 615-446-5953. He will probably have exactly what you need.

Jeff,

You should be able to find some solid steel pins locally at most any good hardware store. I'd stay away from from using spring pins if I were you.
Best regards,
