Roll Pins
I invented a new tool (unseen on the market). As part of making this tool, I need to set two parts together in a fixed position. Roll pins work great! The case hardened steel stands up to the punishment dished out to this tool. Nice to order a product that gives me the exact sizing I needed too. It cost more for me to use the roll pins. But saves me time, in addition turning out a high end tool. There are reasons that I'm getting $125.00, $140.00, and even $200.00 for a garden hoe "Shearer Hoe". "Fastest hoe in the West".
Eliminate Possible Failure
Roll Pins, or Tension Pins are designed for one time use. Always replace, and never reuse these pins to prevent possible failure at the most inopportune time. Relatively inexpensive, keep a good supply for items you may remove for cleaning often.
That's a lot of roll pins!
They are roll pins, what can I say?? Other than this set will probably last me a lifetime. Thanks!
Roll pin assortment
Has every pin you could possibly use in a gun business...I was surprised by the many sizes and lengths of pins! This will be very helpful in my gunsmithing chores and save me $$s!
Perfect
Many uses
must have
I keep this in my shop all of the time. Roll pins cand be damaged when you remove them. The roll pin kit can save your bacon.
Roll pin complete set
Roll pins are as described and worth the price paid. Box is a bit cagey. It looks like block of butter and of course after I filled each area in the yellow box for the different sizes of roll pins, my butter finger hands dropped the whole set and it took a few hours to pick them up off my floor and sort them out and put them in their appropriate area. Some of the smaller boxes hold up to 3 sizes of roll pins and that gets confusing if you happen to need one of those sizes because the box is small. The yellow box should have enough dividers for each size roll pin. To make matters worse, when I was re-sorting the roll pins out, I accidentally dropped a small roll pin in one of the smaller box areas and it took me several more hours to find it… I had to dump the whole box out and re-sort them again because my symptoms of OCD kicked in. Would be happy if I was issued a gift certificate for future purchases. Next project will be to make a box that has multiple areas for each size roll pin. Might even try to magnetize the individual slots so if the yellow box is dropped, hopefully some of the roll pins remain in place.
Would you recommend this?
Yes, I would recommend to a friend
pins vs. pockets?
There are 18 bins in the container. There are 24 different sizes of pins. Some of the bins have three sizes in them. On top of that, we, the customers, are the ones loading the bins. It was nice of them to give us a guide. I would have preferred bins that actually fit the pins meant to go in them. I'm looking at you, 1/4 by 1.5. On the plus side, the pins seem to be made very well. I'm wondering if some of the newer guns might have metric size pins.
good pin
Good pin, was a very tight fit in my Brownells roll pin holder. Fit my AR-15 very nicely. I knew that if I ordered the 48 pc refill pack, that even if I did mess up one or two, I'd still get the job done.
