Metal pins or connecting pins are generally made of steel, stainless steel or aluminum and are designed to accurately position and mechanically connect parts. They are often used in combination with pre-drilled holes or fits, ensuring exact alignment.
Depending on the application, pins can be fixed, removable or slightly clamped (interference fit). In structures, they not only act as a positioning tool, but also as a structural element that transfers forces between components.
Due to their simple yet efficient design, metal pins are essential in modular systems, assemblies and structures that require repeatability and precision.
