it has something to do with a tubular cylinder that has a slit down the side to make a spring effect and acts as a filler for a pin, the pin goes into a hole and the spring goes around the pin to hold it tight in the hole.

It is a small (or larger) bent pin that is pinched to insert it and then springs back so it won't come out of it's placement unless it is pinched and pulled at the same time. It looks like a steel bobbypin.

You answered your own question. That is exactly what a spring pin is. It is also known as a rollpin.
