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
