Pins are cylinder-shaped fastening components that are essentially used to assemble and position two or more parts together, be it temporarily or permanently.
Pins can be smooth, split, slotted, threaded, grooved, ground etc.
Pins' intelligent design means they can be customised with chamfered or rounded ends so you can better adapt them to your particular application.
Pins are widely used in cases where regular assembly and disassembly is required, such as industrial machines, laboratory equipment and the automotive industry.
At Gardette Industries, we have been designing and manufacturing pins for over 100 years.
Thanks to our machining capacity and expertise, we now offer a vast range of pins:
Whether ISO 8741 or ISO 8745, grooved pins are a type of cylindrical fastener with grooves along its length. Grooved pins allow for inflection and compression. Generally, each grooved pin has three grooves at an angle of 120°.
Unlike ground pins, grooved pins do not require any specific gauge tolerance since the elasticity of the grooves enables them to adapt to the diameter of the hole into which the pin is inserted. Its diameter, slightly larger than the nominal diameter, ensures a perfect fit and keeps the pin firmly in place.
Grooved pins can be used in a wide range of applications, such as:
We use various state-of-the-art techniques and machines to produce our grooved pins.
In this section, we'll take a look at the exclusive manufacturing process that we use within Gardette Industries and the P3G group.
We use a specially designed machine to give each pin its final shape. It all starts with an iron rod, using the material best suited to your needs in order to make your grooved pins in stainless steel, brass, steel, aluminium, etc.
Once the raw material is put into the machine - in the form of a (drawn) bar - the pin manufacturing process really begins.
The machine cuts the bar with micron precision. Each pin is carefully cut to perfectly fit your specific project.
After this crucial step, each pin is carefully cleaned and oiled. This is essential as it facilitates friction between the part and the machine, ensuring everything works smoothly. Lubrication also helps extend the pins' lifespan for long-term strength and reliability.
Grooved pins are made using what we call a “grooving machine”.
There are two types of tools for making a grooved pin:
We produce a wide range of pins, each with their own technical specifications:
Choosing the right grooved pin is no easy task - which is why you can contact us here. A qualified expert from our team will be sure to get back to you as soon as possible (less than 48 hours).
