How do these grooved pins work?

When these pins are driven into a hole having an appropriate diameter, their grooves compress & close up. This causes the generated radial forces to produce outward pressure on the hole's walls and securely lock the pin.

Can we reuse grooved pins after removing them?

When users remove these pins, their grooves recover their shape / form with minimal pull-out performance reduction. Therefore, these groove pins can be reused multiple times.

What are the advantages of grooved pins over other types of pins?

Simple Hole Preparation: They don't require reaming or threading of the hole before installation. Shock & Vibration Resistance: Since these pins are compressed over their whole length, they resist shocks / vibrations in harsh environments. Reusablity: These grooved pins can be reused many times, unlike other pins. Simple Installation: They can installed easily, without requiring any sophisticated equipment. Strength: These grooved pins have high shear strength and good wear resistance.

Grooved Pins

Grooved pins are solid press fit fasteners that are ideal for keying collars, sprockets, gears & levers to shafts. They are used as linkage pins for yoke ends & T-handles for valves. Raptor Supplies offers a wide array of grooved pins from brands like Driv-Lok and Fabory. They can also be used as levers, pivots, locking devices or locating elements.

Features

The grooves in grooved pins are formed by swaging, which displaces the material without removing it.
Generally, these pins have 3 grooves at an equal distance around the pin's circumference.
The grooves may run over the entire length for locking the pin.
Pins having grooves that run part-length at one end or in the middle, provide clearance around the ungrooved section for allowing a component to rotate around the pin.
Some grooved pins have a pilot at their ends before the grooves start. This section allows aligning the pin with the hole before installation.
The hole drilled for installation should have a size equal to or slightly larger than the pin's diameter.
These pins have steel construction for withstanding heavy loads without bending / breaking.
Selected models feature an annular groove / notch for securely anchoring tension springs.
Driv-Lok grooved pins are available in Type A, E & G for diverse applications.
Fabory grooved pins are available in multiple groove types, such as full length, half-length reverse, half-length tapered, full-length tapered, third-length centre-grooved, round head grooved, and more.
