The World of Tools

In the world of machinery, there are multitudinous parts, fixtures and other assembling parts. Usha precision is a pioneer in developing such parts and is one of the most efficient precision turned parts manufacturers and also renowned as stainless steel components manufacturers.  Their range of products has almost everything, from stainless steel dowel pins and shafts to axels and stepped rivets.

Dowel pins are shortened lengths of full-sized dowels. They are usually of hard wood.  They may

undergo a secondary operation, such as planing or grooving if it is needed. Metal dowel pins undergo a casting process. The materials that are commonly used for metal dowel pins manufacture include aluminum for its lightness, ductility, conductivity. Brass is also used as it is strong, ductile, conductive, and resistant to corrosion. Also, stainless steel is also extensively used as it has a high pressure rating, and is chemical and corrosion resistant. Plastic dowels are formed via plastic injection molding.

After deciding the material for the dowel pins, the sizing is done. Most dowels produced are of the straight dowel variety. There are a limited number of dowel pin types.  Locating pins, cotter pins, and spring pins.

Dowels are used in numerous and diverse applications including as axles in toys, detents, structural reinforcements in cabinet making, and also as supports for tiered cakes. Other varied uses include furniture shelf supports, moveable game pieces or pegs. They are also used as supports for hanging items such as clothing, key rings, tools and the like.

Steel Pins

A pin is a piece of equipment or tool used for fastening objects or material together. Pins often have two components: a long body and sharp tip made of steel, or sometimes copper or brass, and a larger head often made of plastic. The sharpened body penetrates the material while the larger head provides a driving surface. Pins are formed with the help of a thin wire, sharpening the tip, and adding a head. Nails that are used for hammering objects are related but are typically larger in their size. In the field of machines and engineering, pins are commonly used as pivots, hinges, shafts, jigs, and fixtures to locate or hold parts.

Usha Precision is a company that is known as steel pin manufacturers and solid rivets suppliers. These steel pins are thin, hardened pins and can be driven into wood with a hammer with the goal of not being seen. A different style of pin, somewhat thicker in size and with rounded tip commonly called a stylus is used with gramophones. The vibration of this stylus transforms the physical waves of the groove in a record to the movement of a membrane. In this way the sound recorded can be heard.
                    
Precision turned parts and pins are used by manufacturers in engineering and machine design. In this, a pin is a machine element that secures the position of two or more parts of a machine relative to each other. A large variety of types has been known for a long time; the most commonly used are solid cylindrical pins, solid tapered pins, groove pins, slotted spring pins and spirally coiled spring pins.
