Use the controls at the top of this page to preview pin at any size and color, filled or outlined, and at any weight, grade or optical size, then copy the code. Here is what each setting does in your own Angular app.
Change the Pin icon size
<mat-icon> is fixed at 24 × 24 px, so set width and height along with font-size or the Pin glyph will overflow its box. Match opsz to the size for the crispest strokes.
<mat-icon class="pin-icon">pin</mat-icon>
.pin-icon {
font-size: 40px;
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
font-variation-settings: 'opsz' 40;
}Change the Pin icon color
The icon is a font glyph, so it takes the CSS text color. Set color on the <mat-icon> or on a parent, or use a theme variable to follow light and dark mode.
.pin-icon {
color: #1a73e8;
/* or follow your Material 3 theme */
color: var(--mat-sys-primary);
}Use the filled Pin icon
Material Symbols draws pin as an outline by default. Set the FILL axis to 1 for the solid version. It is the same icon name, so no extra font is needed.
.pin-icon {
font-variation-settings: 'FILL' 1;
}Change the Pin icon weight, grade and optical size
Weight (wght, 100 to 700) sets stroke thickness. Grade (GRAD, -25 to 200) fine-tunes thickness without changing size, for example -25 for light icons on dark backgrounds. Optical size (opsz, 20 to 48) adjusts detail for the size you display. Your font link must request these ranges, as below.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Material+Symbols+Outlined:opsz,wght,FILL,GRAD@20..48,100..700,0..1,-50..200&icon_names=pin&display=block" />
.pin-icon {
font-variation-settings: 'FILL' 0, 'wght' 300, 'GRAD' 0, 'opsz' 24;
}Pin icon FAQ
- How do I change the color of the Pin icon in Angular Material?
- Give the <mat-icon> a class and set the CSS color property, for example .pin-icon { color: #1a73e8; }. The pin icon is a font glyph, so any text color works, including theme variables such as var(--mat-sys-primary).
- How do I make the Pin icon bigger?
- Set font-size, width and height together, for example font-size: 40px; width: 40px; height: 40px;. <mat-icon> has a fixed 24px box, so changing font-size alone makes the icon overflow.
- How do I get the filled Pin icon?
- Keep <mat-icon>pin</mat-icon> and set font-variation-settings: 'FILL' 1 in CSS. Material Symbols uses one name for both the outlined and filled Pin icon.
- How do I make the Pin icon thinner or bolder?
- Change the wght axis with font-variation-settings, from 'wght' 100 (thin) to 'wght' 700 (bold). Load the font with the full weight range, or the browser falls back to 400.
- Can I download the Pin icon as an SVG?
- Yes. Pick a style, fill and weight in the preview above, then open the SVG tab to copy or download pin.svg. Google publishes it under the Apache License 2.0, so it is free for commercial use.
