SIX Stainless Spring Roll Pins for Lopi & Avalon wood stove secondary air tubes

Description

Note:  These STAINLESS STEEL spring pins will last much, much longer than the ordinary plain steel OEM pins.
This listing is for a set of six STAINLESS STEEL spring roll pins, for the sliding retainer collars on the secondary air tubes in the following stoves and inserts (not all stoves require all six pins):
Lopi:  Endeavor, 1750, Republic, Parlor, Revere, Answer, Patriot, 1250, Liberty, Freedom, Freedom Bay, Sheffield, Flush Bay, 520-96, and others requiring part number 98900357.
Avalon:  1196, Rainier, 1190, Olympic, Pendleton, 1250, Spokane, 1750, Mission, Cottage, Camano, and others requiring part number 98900357.
For replacement secondary air tubes, door hinge pins, and other stove parts, please see my other listings.
I have owned a Lopi Endeavor stove for 12 years, and have used these spring pins in the replacement of the secondary air tubes in the firebox.  Each tube requires 2 spring pins.  It has been my experience that the spring pins will lose their "springiness" over the years (possibly due to repeated high heat and cooling), and tend to loosen and fall out.
Helpful hints...
*Shovel out the ashes from the firebox before installing the new spring pins.  Trying to find a dropped spring pin in the ashes is like trying to find your car keys that you dropped in the snow.
*The holes in the sliding collars are slightly larger than the spring pin holes in the tubes - the spring pin does not fit tightly in the sliding collar holes.
*Note that the spring pins have a slot down one side.  When removing or reinstalling the pins, if you put the jaws of the pliers on either side of the slot and squeeze the slot shut, it will slide in or out a little bit easier.  You may need to use the vice-grips to get enough force to close the slot in the spring pin.
*Use vice-grips to grasp, twist, and pull out the old spring pins.  If this doesn't work, use a hammer and punch to drive the old pins up into the tube and pipe stub.
*If you have to punch the old spring pin up into the pipe stub, it can be retrieved with long-nose pliers.  Or, you can just push it into the secondary air duct, where it will lay harmlessly for the life of the stove.
*If you wear bifocals like I do, you may find it helpful to lay crossways in front of the stove (on you left shoulder, if you are right-handed) to do the work.  Disregard this helpful hint if you can tip your head way farther back than I can, in order to focus properly!
