Roll Pin 3/16in x 7/8in for Distributor Gear

The Roll Pin 3/16in x 7/8in for Distributor Gear is a precision fastener designed for engine builders and restoration specialists who require reliability in ignition system assemblies. This small but crucial component secures the distributor gear to the shaft, preventing unwanted rotation that could disrupt ignition timing and lead to misfires. Ideal for small-block Chevy builds, vintage muscle car engines, or classic hot rod restorations, this roll pin is an essential choice for those who understand the importance of timing.

Manufactured by ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE, this 3/16-inch diameter roll pin is engineered to deliver consistent shear strength under the cyclic loading experienced during engine operation. The 7/8-inch length ensures adequate engagement depth for secure retention while maintaining proper fit tolerances on the shaft. Roll pins are preferred in distributor applications as they distribute clamping force more evenly than traditional cotter pins, minimizing the risk of shaft galling and ensuring consistent assembly quality.

Mechanics and engine builders working on vintage distributor rebuilds, breaker point conversions, or modern electronic ignition retrofits will find this pin beneficial. While it is compatible with many small-block engines, users should verify specific compatibility based on their engine type. This roll pin is an excellent choice for those pursuing performance improvements or striving for optimal engine operation.
