The Difference Between Cold Headed and Machined Solid Pins
The objective of this paper is to educate designers about the differences between cold heading and machining so that they understand how to design a Solid Pin that optimizes performance and reduces total manufactured cost of the assembly. 

How to Select the Proper Diameter and Duty of a Coiled Spring Pin
This White Paper provides the fundamental guidelines for determining the optimum balance between strength and flexibility of the Coiled Spring Pin that will result in the prolonged net life of the assembly.

How to Maximize Retention of Spring Pins
Spring Pins are used in many different assemblies for a variety of reasons: to serve as hinge pins and axles, to align components, or simply to fasten multiple components together. Spring Pins are formed by rolling and configuring metal strip into a cylindrical shape that allows for radial compression and recovery. When properly implemented, Spring Pins provide reliable robust joints with excellent retention. During installation, Spring Pins compress and conform to the smaller host hole. Work used to compress the pin has been captured as potential energy.
