Fasteners. Taper grooved pins. Half-length progressive grooves. | Status: Current

1 Scope This document specifies the characteristics of taper grooved pins with half-length progressive grooves (with close-end at the insertion side), in steel and stainless steel, and with nominal diameter 1 mm to 25 mm. These grooved pins are designed to fulfil the main following functions:

• — positioning or guiding, and
• — relative rotation of the assembled parts,

with an easy installation (due to its shape) and a medium level of pull-out resistance (due to the elastic fit behaviour of the pin). The general requirements (including functional principles for grooved pins and assembly) are specified in ISO 13669.
