Dowel Pins
A cost-effective, high-quality alternative to machined or slide-formed dowel pins
Stripmatic has perfected a process to wrap tight-tolerance dowel pins that meet and exceed quality standards and engineering specifications.
Tight-tolerance dowel pins from Stripmatic offer:
- Consistent and repeatable spring fits
- Roundness tolerances that maintain center line position of bolt holes
- Consistent press fit holds dowel pins in position during shipping, handling and assembly operations
- Will not tangle or interlock in automatic feeding systems
- Can be made from pre-plated corrosion-resistant material
- Can be installed manually or by an automated system
Tight Tolerances
- +/- .0015" OD tolerance for consistent press fit efforts
- +/- .0005" wall thickness to develop accurate centerline dimensions
Cost Savings
- Shorter lead times and less price volatility than dowel pins made from tubing
- More efficient manufacturing process than cut-off or machined tube
- Most features are performed in process vs costly secondary operations
- Minimal production start-up costs
Solid Experience - Fast Response
- Quick prototype and sample turnaround
- Exceptional track record for quick response time on quality issues
- EDI and CAD technical support
- Inventory control using customer-based inventory management systems
- Over 60 years of dowel pin and wrapped tube design experience and technical support
