Pin GN 717-8-M16x1,5-CK-ST Z036451

Locking pin – precision and reliability in mounting

This locking pin, identified as GN 717-8-M16x1,5-CK-ST, is an element used for precise and secure fastening of components in machines, devices and structures. Made of high-quality stainless steel AISI 303 and galvanized steel, it guarantees corrosion resistance and long-term reliability even in harsh industrial conditions. This is particularly important in applications exposed to moisture, chemicals or variable temperatures.

Design and application

GN 717 pins are characterized by a design with a threaded body and a knob with a retaining ring and lock nut (BK design). This arrangement ensures stable and secure fastening, preventing accidental loosening of the element. The suggested hole cooperating with the pin should be made with a tolerance of +0.06/+0.08, which ensures a perfect fit and minimizes the risk of looseness. It finds application in many industries:

• Mechanical engineering: Fastening of adjusting elements, guides and covers.
• Automation: Maintaining the position of elements in industrial automation systems.
• Food industry: Fastening elements in production equipment (AISI 303 material is approved for contact with food).
• Medical devices: Precise mounting of components requiring high stability.
• Machine building: Assembly of access panels, protective covers and other structural elements.

Advantages and benefits

• High quality materials: Stainless steel AISI 303 and galvanized steel provide corrosion resistance and long service life.
• Safety of use: The retaining ring and lock nut prevent accidental loosening of the pin.
• Versatility of application: A wide range of threads (including M16x1,5) allows adaptation to various applications.
• Easy assembly and disassembly: The design with a knob facilitates manual assembly and disassembly without tools.
• Chemical resistance: PA (polyamide) material is resistant to solvents, oils and lubricants, increasing durability in demanding environments.
• Dimensional accuracy: Hole tolerance +0.06/+0.08 ensures precise fit of the element.
