斜銷TAPER PIN

Taper Pin (Locating Tapered Dowel)

Taper pins are cylindrical locating components with a slight taper, designed for precise alignment and anti-rotation positioning in mechanical assemblies.

The tapered geometry allows the pin to self-center during insertion, ensuring a tight and stable fit without the need for additional fastening elements. Taper pins are commonly used to secure shafts, gears, sleeves, and other rotational components.

​Product Features

  • Metric taper design (1:50) provides self-centering insertion

  • Available in various types: slotted, internally threaded, etc.

  • Suitable for repeated alignment, anti-rotation, and disassembly applications
