Dowel Pins
Dowel pins are industrial fasteners used to join two or more items together. They are short, cylindrical rods made of various materials. Dowel pins can be tapered, slotted, grooved, or otherwise altered to change their mechanical properties.
We make compression springs from Wire diameter 0.1 mm to 12.5 mm.
Types of Dowel Pins
1. Straight Dowel Pins:
• These are the most common type.
• Straight dowel pins have a uniform diameter along their entire length.
• They are used for precise alignment and support in various applications.
2. Tapered Dowel Pins:
• Tapered dowel pins have a gradual reduction in diameter along their length.
• They provide a tight fit and self-centering capability.
• Commonly used in woodworking and machinery assembly.
3. Stepped Dowel Pins:
• Stepped dowel pins have different diameters at each end.
• They allow for varying fits and alignment requirements.
Applications Across Industries
Dowel pins play a crucial role in various industries:
• Manufacturing: Aligning machine parts during assembly.
• Woodworking: Joinery, furniture construction.
• Automotive: Engine components, transmission systems.
• Aerospace: Precision assemblies, structural components.
Advantages of Dowel Pins
1. Precise Alignment: Dowel pins ensure accurate positioning of parts.
2. Load Distribution: They distribute forces evenly, reducing stress concentration.
3. Cost-Effective: Dowel pins provide reliable performance at a low cost.
Dowel pins are the hidden connectors that keep machinery and structures together. We specialize in providing reliable and customized dowel pins.
