Are the 70-219 and 70-009 pins interchangeable?

I have purchased the 70-219 plastic pins from SWISCO, and they are the perfect size; however, I'm wondering if the 70-009 pins would be better, as in they might not break as easily? Thanks for your help!

The 70-009 pins may work, but you would have to grind down the tip so that it matches the tip for the 70-219.
