If you're looking for personalised recommendations about the right type of spring pin to use for your applications, ask our experts for specialised advice. Easy Replacement: If necessary, roll pins can be removed and replaced without significant damage to the components.

If your log roll is more than 10 ins (250mm) high do consider using extra support for the retained soil, above 18ins (450mm) extra support is definitely recommended. Log roll products are installed by attaching them to metal or wooden (50mm x 50mm) pegs driven into the ground. Obviously the larger the log roll the greater weight of soil it is likely to be retaining and so the better staking it will require. As a guide up to 6 or 7 inch (150-175mm) log roll will just need two pegs, one at each end, and two nails/screws to attach the roll to the peg. Larger log rolls should have 3 pegs per length, one at each end and one in the middle, and the largest rolls should have 3 screws to attach the roll to each peg. Roll pins are commonly made from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and other alloys. Carbon steel roll pins offer good strength and cost-effectiveness, while stainless steel roll pins provide corrosion resistance, making them suitable for outdoor or corrosive environments. The choice of material depends on the application's requirements and environmental conditions. Spring tension pins are used in a variety of applications and industry to include Electrical , Automotive , Agricultural , White products , Turning and Milling machines. For further technical specifications call our sales team who can advise on tolerance and shear strength etc.Spring pins are general purpose components used across a wide range of fastening applications. They are hollow, tube-like fasteners, usually made from carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel. Vibration Resistance: The design of roll pins allows them to absorb and withstand vibrations without loosening. If you are using the roll as an edging then dig a trench where you want the roll to run, the depth of trench will depend on the height on the log roll you have and how much of it you want showing above the ground. Ideally aim to have 50-75mm (2-3ins) below ground level. Spring pins are one of the most common types of mechanical fastener, and are used across all kinds of industries, including:

We specialise in the larger diameters of Spring Tension Pins 13mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm, 21mm, 22mm, 24mm, 25mm, 28mm, 30mm, 32mm, 35mm, 38mm, 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, 62mm which conform to one of the following standards BS7060 DIN8752 DIN1481 and ISO8752 Now using a flat board on top of the log roll, tap along the length to get the tops all the same height and horizontal. Then drive in the stake at the other end and attach the log roll to this.As it is installed, the spring pin is compressed - applying constant pressure on each side of the hole wall. This allows users to provide a secure fix to various parts of a machine, with the spring pin acting as a self-retaining fastener between parts.
