4709 - Miller Smith Replacement Spirol Pin 4709

Precision Engineering for Industrial Maintenance

The Miller Smith 4709 Spirol Pin is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the maintenance and repair of Miller Smith oxy-fuel equipment. In the realm of industrial gas apparatus, the integrity of every small component dictates the safety and performance of the entire assembly. Unlike standard slotted pins, a spirol pin (or coiled spring pin) is constructed with a unique 2.25-coil cross-section. This geometric configuration allows the pin to equalize stress radially throughout the cross-section, providing exceptional flexibility and shock absorption capabilities. When installed in high-vibration environments—common in heavy-duty welding and cutting operations—this pin maintains its position securely without damaging the host hole.

Using genuine OEM parts like the Miller 4709 ensures that the metallurgical properties and dimensional tolerances align perfectly with the original engineering specifications of your Smith equipment. A pin that is too hard can cause wear on the housing, while one that is too soft may shear under load. Miller Electric utilizes high-grade materials to manufacture these pins, ensuring they withstand the thermal cycles and mechanical stresses inherent in oxy-fuel applications. Whether used as a pivot point, a stop, or a fastening element within a torch handle or regulator body, this spirol pin restores the equipment to its factory-standard functionality.

Maintenance professionals understand that using the correct fastener is not merely about fit; it is about reliability. The coiled design of the 4709 pin allows it to conform to the hole, accommodating minor hole irregularities while maintaining a tight friction fit. This reduces the risk of the pin working loose over time, a common failure mode in inferior fasteners. By choosing the Miller Smith 4709, you are investing in the longevity of your valuable tools and ensuring that your operations continue with minimal downtime due to equipment failure.

This product is supplied as a single unit, allowing for precise inventory management for tool cribs and maintenance departments. It is compatible with specific legacy and current Smith Equipment models. Always consult the equipment service manual to verify the part number before installation to ensure compatibility and safety.
