Klein Tools 3262 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Klein Tools barrel-type drift pin come in?
Two diameters: 15/16 inch (part 3262) and 1-1/16 inch (part 3263). Both are barrel-type pins on an 8 inch overall length. Pick the diameter closest to your bolt hole size so the pin draws the holes into line without wedging.
2) Can you strike the end of a Klein 3262 drift pin with a hammer?
Yes. The pin is machined from 8640 alloy steel and heat treated specifically so the end stands up to peining during heavy alignment work. The black finish is a rust-resistant coating, not a plating that disqualifies it from being struck.
3) What is the taper point size on the Klein barrel-type drift pin?
The point measures 0.500 inch (12.70 mm), tapering up to the full barrel diameter over the 8 inch body. On the 15/16 inch model the barrel is 0.938 inch, so you get a long, gradual pull from a half-inch tip to full size, which is what lets you start in badly offset holes and walk them into register.
4) Is a barrel-type drift pin the right choice, or do I need a tapered connecting bar?
A barrel-type pin like the Klein 3262 has uniform tapers blending into a straight body of a fixed diameter, so it holds the connection in alignment at a known size while you set bolts. A long tapered connecting bar is the tool you want when you need leverage to drag steel into place over a bigger misalignment. For electrical panel work, equipment positioning and general fabrication fit-up, the 8 inch barrel pin is the handier of the two.
5) How much does the Klein 15/16-inch drift pin weigh, and will it fit a tool pouch?
It weighs 1.1 lb (0.5 kg) and measures 8 inches long by 1 inch in the other two dimensions, so it drops into a standard pouch or bull pin loop without trouble.
6) Is the Klein barrel drift pin made in the USA?
Yes, Klein manufactures it in the USA from 8640 alloy steel. That matters if you are buying under a domestic-content requirement on a government or institutional job.
7) Will the black finish on this drift pin hold up outdoors or in a damp plant?
The black finish is applied for rust resistance and is what protects the 8640 steel in wet or corrosive environments. It is a coating on a working tool, so expect it to wear at the struck end and at the taper with use.
