What size (diameter) rolling pins will these rings fit and work with? I've seen a lot of reviews that say they don't fit their rolling pin. Why?

Most rolling pins are 2 inches in diameter or smaller; these fit 2 1/4 inch - 3 inch diameter pins. Some rolling pins with ball bearings might be that thick, but no dowel pins that I have found are. Since these are supposed to be used for rolling out pastry dough, for which the dowel pins are ideal, it seems to me that the designers of these weren't thinking.

I have awooden rolling pin that has a diameter of 2 1/2 inches. The rings do fit. However, I had to be sure not to put too much dough on the board because If I did, the rings made marks in the dough as it flattened. I finally used them last week.

The inside diameter of the rings is 2.25 inches. My wooden rolling pin is 2.5 inches in diameter and the rings stretch to fit snugly on the pin. They will not work with skinny rolling pins or those that taper at the ends. The smaller rings might stretch enough to fit a larger pin but the more they're stretched, the less space you'll have between the pin and your rolling surface. Hope this helps.

Yes they will, no problem. They will fit any standard bit. Good quality bearings!

I wouldn't use these for regular pins. Because they have a round tip to fit in the roll pin.They sell punches for straight pins.

Probably. My rolling pin was very very old so did not fit. The quality of the rings is excellent.

These would not fit a 2.24" inch rolling pin, the diameter of these rings will fit a rolling pin's diameter of 1.5" at the most

i use them on 26 inch montain bike wheels and work well. the brand of your bike is not important in this case. take Acutal measure of the pads and the rim. Hope this is helpful to you. thanks

close but they are actually 1/2 inch so no 7/16......how accurate does your circle have to be? You will need a very tight drill press and vice to carry out the work. Good luck!

Sorry to be so long in answering. My ring measures very closely to 13". When they are new they are always just a hair large seeming and don't fit like a glove inside the lid, tending to "bubble" just a little bit. Then of course they shrink to fit very nicely as you suggest.

My rolling pin is about 2 1/4 inches and the bands fit but it is a very snug fit.

These are too small for safety pins. I have tried it and you need some that are a little bigger.

These were too big for my wooden rolling pin - which measures 6" in diameter. Hope this helps!

I am not sure. You would have to contact Smittybilt. Not sure what size the hole is. How much space do you have with your 3/4"? If you don't have much then I don't think they would fit. I actually grinded my pins down a bit to make them fit. I would not recommend this for most, but my d-rings are mostly for looks.

Deborah, They should be work but the pins stretch and do not hold as well after you use them the first time. I am still using mine but sometimes I have to bend them back in shape.

I think they might be a little to small for 3 inch rings. The tang that open's the ring is 1/8 of an inch long. They probably won't open the ring much. I got them for 5mm rings.

I really like snap pins as they work very well. Amazon has an Excellent return policy so I would order them and if they do not fit then order the correct size. I suspect they will work however. Good Luck. I would measure for you but my unit is about an hour and half away from where I live.

They should work with any Dremel (or other rotary tools) if you have the right sized collets (the little adapters that determine what size shanks the tool will grip.) Just be very careful and patient with thicker/harder materials. I've broken much heavier bits on things like dice and antlers.

Since all pin holes are the same size unless the holes are old then they are bigger then yes they will fit. Bright tone as well. I love them.
