ATI Crankshaft Steel Dowel Pin - 3/16in. Diameter 1/2in. Long

This is the ATI Crankshaft Steel Dowel Pin, measuring 3/16 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch in length. It's a small but critical component used in engine builds, specifically for aligning crankshaft dampers or pulleys to the crankshaft. Without a properly seated dowel pin, the damper or pulley can easily shift, leading to timing issues or even catastrophic engine failure.

Crafted from solid steel, this dowel pin is built to withstand the forces within the engine bay. Its precise dimensions ensure it seats firmly in the crankshaft snout and the corresponding hole in the damper or pulley, maintaining perfect alignment. While it might seem like a minor part, using a well-made dowel pin like this one from ATI is essential for the integrity of your engine's timing system, especially when you're rebuilding or replacing your crankshaft damper.
