Coiled Elastic Cylindrical Pin

The installation method for coiled elastic cylindrical pins is relatively simple and is typically used to connect two parts, allowing them to rotate relatively freely while maintaining a certain level of fastening force. Below are the general installation steps for coiled elastic cylindrical pins:

1. **Preparation:** First, ensure you have the appropriate size and type of elastic cylindrical pin, as well as the two parts you want to connect.

2. **Insert the Pin:** Insert one end of the elastic cylindrical pin into a hole or shaft hole of one of the parts you want to connect. Make sure the length of the elastic cylindrical pin is long enough to fully cover the distance between the two parts.

3. **Align the Parts:** Ensure that the two parts you want to connect are aligned so that they can slide into the other end of the elastic cylindrical pin.

4. **Roll the Pin with a Tool:** Use a specialized tool, often a small roller or wheel, to gradually coil the other end of the elastic cylindrical pin. This will reduce the diameter of the pin at one end, anchoring it in place on the part.

5. **Check the Connection:** Ensure that the elastic cylindrical pin is securely fastened to both parts and that they can rotate relatively freely. Initially, some rotational force may be required to ensure the parts can move freely without being loose.

6. **Trim Excess:** If there is any excess of the elastic cylindrical pin protruding beyond the parts, you can use cutting tools to trim it to the desired length.

7. **Test the Connection:** Finally, perform some tests to ensure the connection is secure, without any noticeable looseness or friction, and that the parts can rotate freely.

It's important to note that elastic cylindrical pins are typically meant for one-time use. Once coiled, they are not easily disassembled and reused. Therefore, it's crucial to be prepared and meet the connection requirements before installation. Additionally, be cautious when coiling the pin to avoid overcoiling or damaging the parts. If you need to replace the connection or perform maintenance, you will often need to cut the original elastic cylindrical pin and then reinstall a new one.
