BK Double Pins give accurate, repeatable die placement in sectioned models. Each die needs only one drill hole; the tapered pin fits narrow dies, a short friction zone lets the die lift out easily and reseat firmly, and the asymmetric pin cannot be put back the wrong way round.
Why labs choose it
- One drill hole per die – faster preparation with secure support
- No rocking or rattle
- Works with standard Pindex-style pinning drills and standard 16 mm model bases
- Rubber end caps are packed loose for quicker handling
Two sleeve types
- Plastic sleeves – corrosion-proof, protect the model base, the everyday choice
- Metal sleeves – added strength and long sleeve life for technicians who prefer metal
Details
- Each box: 1,000 double pins, 1,000 sleeves and 1,000 rubber end caps

About dowel pins and pin systems
A dowel pin lets a die section be removed from the stone cast and put back accurately in its original position. The shelf holds single and double pins, pins with sleeves, and the drills and drilling units that set them.
A dowel pin is a metal pin used in stone casts to remove die sections and replace them accurately in the original position. Model bases are one of the uses ISO 6873 names for dental gypsum products.
How the parts of a pinned model differ
- Dowel Pins & Pin Systems — The pin that lets a die come out of the cast and go back in the same place.
- Model Base Formers — Shapes the base under the model.
- Gingiva Mask Materials — A soft material that stands in for the gum on the model.
- Model Accessories — The small parts that go with the pin and base systems.
