Choose from our selection of locating pins mating locating pins and hole liners threaded locating pins and more. Typically locating pins are used for controlled fine tolerance positioning of a work piece. Locating and fixturing pins are press fit removable hardware devices designed to align or affix two work pieces to very small tolerances. In stock and ready to ship.

Encase these pins while molding plastic or composite parts. For example a pallet that is moved along one axis where the drive mechanism is not accurate and stable enough to place it in a position sufficiently accurate to execute a particular process the use of locating pins may be the best solution. Also known as slip fit and lock screw locating pins they are held in place by a separate lock screw. While interference fits create tight assembly tolerances slip fits are just the opposite they can easily give you a self locating assembly making manufacturing easier when needing close alignment.

Pogo pins consisting of a plunger or head barrel or body and a fully encapsulated fine spring to provide the spring force required to maintain positive contact. Cast in locating pins for plastics. We ve explored interference fits and all their design limitations but dowel pins have another application. All have a high durability exceeding 10 000 mating cycles.

One round fixture locating pin and one diamond pin are often used together to locate two holes without binding because the diamond pin is relieved to locate in only 1 axis. The tab is located on the lower knife by placing the routed section of the panel on a set of locating pins and holding the pcb or letting it rest on the support table.
