This is great info M16ty, but I think there's more to this we'd need to know before cranking out pins.

Is it 2024-O, 2024-T3, or 2024-T351? (The latter being heat treated versions of the 2024 alloy, 2024-O being not treated).

I'm not sure what tests were run, but the heat treating would make a difference in the yield strength of the pin (by nearly a factor of 2).

Here's a bit on 2024 alloy.
