Fasteners: Dowel Pins & Extractable Dowels
FEATURES:
Solid Dowels are solid pins, usually precision ground to narrow limits to permit accurate fitting.
Tolerance and Fits Dowels are normally precision ground to produce a close tolerance diameter. The tolerance to which a dowel is ground is not directly related to the fit.
Fitting Dowels into Blind Holes When a dowel is interference-fitted into a blind hole, it increases the pressure of the air trapped in the hole. It is strongly advised to specify that the dowel should have an air release flat ground along its full length.
Materials The material specifications of our standard range is:
Through Hardened Steel:100Cr6,WS 1.3505 Hardened & Tempered to HV 550-650.
