A pogo pin, also known as a rolling pin, is a fastener used to connect two or more machine parts, and pogo pins are already used for more "permanent" connections in cell phones, laptops, computers, and other electronic devices. They are called "pogo pins" because they contain a spring that expands when inserted. However, the real point of a spring is its size. They are wider than the insertion hole, and many people wonder how they work.

The mechanics of pogo pins

The pogo pins will work even if the pogo pins are wider than the insertion holes because they deform and then expand. They have at least one chamber that allows them to enter the cargo compartment. Once inside, the spring pin expands so that it presses against the inside wall of the hole. This compression will continue to occur until the spring pin reaches the same diameter as the hole.

coil pogo pin

The most common type of spring pin is coiled. Also known as a coil spring pin, it has a coil spring that expands when inserted into a hole. They are made by forming a metal strip into a spiral shape. Once inserted, the coil spring pin will begin to expand, creating a firm and secure environment for connected machine components.
