Dowel Pins & Cotter Pins Manufacturer, Wholesaler, Supplier & Exporter to Ethiopia
Dowel Pins & Cotter Pins manufacturer, wholesaler, supplier and exporter in Ethiopia. Global Fasteners Exports is a trading and export company: our dowel pins & cotter pins are made to DIN 7, ISO 2338, DIN 1481, DIN 94 standards by partner factories and supplied to buyers in Ethiopia from 10,000 pcs, or a half or full container, at competitive prices below the average wholesale price.
Dowel pins provide precise alignment between mating parts, while cotter (split) pins secure castellated nuts and clevis joints against loosening. Made by our partner factories, we supply and export both to DIN and ISO standards in steel and stainless steel. Ethiopia is landlocked and relies on the Port of Djibouti for the large majority of its sea-borne trade, with onward road and rail transport to Addis Ababa and other industrial centers.

Minimum order and container quantity
Minimum order
10,000 pcs
or half / full container, as per your requirement
Half container (20ft)
1-1.5 million pcs
Full container (20ft)
2-3 million pcs
A standard 20ft container (~20 tons) typically holds 2-3 million pieces of dowel or cotter pins in common sizes. Exact quantity depends on diameter and length and is confirmed at quote time.
The minimum order is 10,000 pcs, so you don't need a full container to order: half-container and smaller LCL orders are available as well. Hurain Engitech & Trade — the group Global Fasteners Exports operates under — regularly ships smaller, partial-container (LCL) orders of just a few pallets or boxes for buyers who don't yet need FCL volume, consolidated with other cargo to keep freight cost reasonable.
