Dowel pin for Favelle Favco cranes

The AFYM-1607-0X01 dowel pin serves as a mechanical positioning component in Favelle Favco crane systems. Its primary function is to maintain exact alignment between two or more assembled parts, providing a fixed reference point that prevents relative movement or sliding between components during operation. By securing the orientation of structural members, this pin helps maintain the intended mechanical configuration of the crane assembly.

This component is specified with a diameter of 16 mm and a length of 70 mm. It is intended for use in various critical connection points within Favelle Favco tower and luffing jib cranes, such as boom sections, tower segments, or slewing mechanisms where structural integrity relies on precise fitment. The pin is engineered to hold its position within the assembly, acting as a reference point for structural fasteners.

Dowel pins are used in heavy machinery to facilitate the assembly process and ensure that mating surfaces remain correctly indexed. By resisting shear forces at the joint, they prevent the misalignment that can occur under dynamic loading or vibration. This allows primary fasteners to focus on clamping force while the pin manages the geometric positioning of the joined parts.
