Press Fit Dowel Pins

Press fit dowel pins are fastener components used to securely join two or more parts together. They are cylindrical in shape with a chamfered end and are inserted into pre-drilled holes. Dowel pins are known for their high mechanical strength and are used in the automotive, aerospace and electronics industries. They are used to precisely locate components in machines, tools, jigs and fixtures. These press fit dowel pins can join parts together in the assembly process as well. They are also used to join parts in applications where there is a need for a precise fit. Press fit dowel pins are available in a range of sizes and materials, including steel, stainless steel, brass and plastic.

• Press fit dowel pins are used in precision assemblies where close tolerance alignment of components is critical.
• These metal dowel pins have a slightly oversized tolerance and are designed for use with a hole that is slightly smaller than the pin diameter.
