Description
Overview:
The Spring Pin 3x24 is a genuine Husqvarna OEM fastener designed to secure components on power equipment where a compact, positive, interference fit is needed. Manufactured from hardened spring steel, it compresses on installation to lock into place, resisting vibration and preventing parts from drifting or loosening in service. With a nominal size of 3 x 24 mm (approximately 0.12 x 0.94 inches), it suits precision locations in small shafts, levers, linkages, and housings. Commonly found across Husqvarna machinery, it is specified for models such as the 268K cut-off saw and 272K, and various Rider mowers. Using the correct OEM pin maintains alignment and structural integrity, supporting reliable performance and helping to protect larger assemblies from wear caused by movement.
Key Features:
- Genuine Husqvarna OEM part for assured fit and compatibility on listed machines
- Hardened spring steel construction for strength and long service life
- Slotted, self-retaining design grips the bore to resist vibration and axial movement
- Precise size: 3 mm diameter x 24 mm length (approx. 0.12 in x 0.94 in) for accurate location
- Helps maintain alignment of shafts, levers, guards, and pulley hubs
- Compact form factor enables use in tight assemblies without adding weight or bulk
- Straightforward to install with standard pin punches and a suitable hammer or press
- Suitable replacement where the original pin shows wear, loss of tension, or damage
Typical Applications:
Used to locate and secure parts on chainsaws, cut-off saws, and ride-on mowers, including linkages, clutch or brake mechanisms, handle assemblies, housings, and small shaft couplings. Ideal where repeat shock and vibration demand a positive, interference-fit fastener that will not back out. Also useful after servicing when reassembling components to the manufacturer's specification.
Also known as:
Roll pin, tension pin, spring tension pin, slotted spring pin, spring dowel. These names describe the same compressible pin style used to lock components together via a drilled hole, offering resilient retention compared with solid dowels or plain cylindrical pins.
