20Pcs 5mm x 20mm Stainless Steel Dowel Pins for Wood Bunk Bed Shelf Support

Dowel Pin Introduction

A dowel pin is a type of fastener commonly used for positioning and connecting two parts to make equipment more stable. It is typically fixed in an installation hole using Presspassung. Dowel pins come in various types such as slotted spring pin, clevis pins, and taper pins. They are usually made from materials like stainless steel SUS304, SUS316, carbon steel C35, C45, among others, and may require heat treatment and hardening for high strength requirements.

Applications

Dowel pins are widely used in both wooden and metal products. In wooden products, they are commonly found in double beds, bookshelves, shelves, outdoor shade sheds, and cabinet partitions. In metal devices, dowel pins are utilized in punching punches, industrial molds, fixtures, pin gauges, hinges, and for shaft fixed applications.

Sizes and Tolerances

Dowel pins are available in various sizes ranging from 3/64" to 3/8" in diameter and 3/16" to 4" in length. They are manufactured with a diameter tolerance of +0.0008"/-0.0008" and a length tolerance of +0.02"/-0.02".

Installation and Connection

When installing dowel pins, ensure they are inserted into the mounting hole with ease. For a tight fit, consider adding a metal adhesive at the fixed end. It is essential to keep the alignment between the hole positions of the connecting components during installation. Also, use fixed positioning jigs and drilling tools for accuracy.

Notice

To ensure a tight fit, the hole should be equal to or slightly smaller than the diameter of the dowel pin. In this case, the diameter is 5mm. Consider using a metal adhesive at the fixed end for better performance.

In conclusion, dowel pins are essential fasteners for various applications in both wooden and metal products. They provide stability and precision in connecting components, making them valuable components in construction and manufacturing industries.
