Are the detent pins used to retain sockets on impact wrenches made from a special, or minimum strength, steel?
And, why don't they have a 'head' on one end to prevent them slipping straight through?

do you want to do a makeshift improvement and not buy the spare part?

Recent purchase of an impact wrench came with a set of three of differing length.
The likelihood is within 3-6 months the most frequently used one will be lost.
Agree there are many sources of spare parts, but none, that I have seen to date, have a head, leading to a repeat of the above.
