If it's of any help though, on my 2748 connector (the cord-plug-in end) the male pin
diameter is 0.061 ~ 0.062" (measured with a cheap micrometer, perhaps the
actual spec is 1/16=0.0625).
I understand the confusion - I have on hand 3 different examples of ~0.062" dia.
male pins. Cursorily they look the same and plug into the same female pin, but are
different in length and in the shoulder-housing-insert area. Then there are
similar-looking pins that are ~0.040" diameter, which may be what you acquired.
These kind of look like they might be the 0.062 diameter:

whereas these look like they could be the 0.040 diameter:

But then you have to watch out to be getting the correct type of pin for the
housing one is using, for as stated above they can differ in that section of
the pin even though of the same mating diameter.
Just for completeness, for the AMP connector (200276-4) on which the
pins are just a bit to small, the pins measure at .055" - close, but no
cigar. (1.4mm).
