ISO – International Organization For Standardization
The ISO is perhaps the most well-known standard organization in existence, as it owns almost 25,000 standards in industries ranging from camera film speed to currency codes to social responsibility. It began regulating fasteners about 50 years ago and eventually usurped DIN’s role as Europe’s main standard setter in the industry.
In the fastener realm, many ISO standards originated as DIN standards; such standards may now have different names, but they are essentially the same thing (some slight variations exist). For example, ISO 133337 used to be known as DIN 7346 . The two names represent the same standard, which regulates the dimensions of metric light-duty roll pins.
What is ISO 8734 dowel pin?
The ISO 8734 dowel pins are straight headless shear fasteners that have chamfered ends. An ISO 8734 Dowel Pin helps aid its insertion and alignment. The ISO 8734A Plain Steel Parallel Dowel Pin helps keep the parts aligned in place. These pins are manufactured in precise fractional diameters and lengths.
What is ISO 8734 material?
ISO 8734 covers standard specifications for parallel pins. An ISO 8734 Material has hardened or case hardened and martensitic grade of stainless steel. This material is designed with standard diameters from 1mm to 20mm.
