Precision Locating & Alignment Components
Replaceable Locating Pins
Replaceable locating pins provide removable locating elements for fixtures and tooling where the locating component may need to be serviced, changed or replaced.
Replaceable Locating Pins for Serviceable Fixtures
Replaceable locating pins provide defined locating points while allowing the locating element to be removed or replaced without treating the pin as a permanent part of the fixture. Renewable locating-pin configurations are commonly used with suitable mounting or bushing interfaces.
Production fixtures
Assembly tooling
Inspection fixtures
Replaceable locating stations
Modular or serviceable tooling
Selection Considerations
Review the locating diameter and geometry, mounting method, working height, mating hole or bushing, installation arrangement and required replacement method.
Mating Interface Review
Depending on the design, replaceable locating pins may be used with suitable locator or liner bushings and retaining features. The pin and mating interface should be reviewed as a system. Requirements may include standard configurations or modified locating diameter, working length, shoulder or mounting geometry, material or finish, subject to sourcing feasibility.
What to Provide for RFQ
Please provide quantity, locating diameter, working length, mounting method, mating-interface information, material or finish requirement, and any drawing or existing part reference.
